Does anyone know if (or how much) talking effects the HR? (I just got my Garmin 305 and have done a few runs on it. All this data! It's addicting, and my friends already tease me "what's your HR now?... how about now?" Blush

) thx

I'd say, Yes. Only because when I go to thr Dr. and she takes my blood pressure, she always says ok Don't move and don't talk.

Sure...talking takes breath and energy....HR will respond to that. A random word, no, but chitter chatter...sure. Try sometime going out at a fairly hard pace that you can hold. Then try talking and holding that same pace.

yes it does, so does listening to my DD talk especially when she is talking about how old I am getting and "What kind of funeral do you want mom?" (I think I may be done running with DD)
