I just want to say thanks to all of you, you guys, and many others like you have been a huge help and inspiration to me. It has been tough at times, but like others have said, it is a mind set that you have to have and you have to find that dedication inside of you to keep going, especially on those days when it seems like…

My wife and I both have the Polar FT-4, we love them!

Yes I configured my HRM with my height, weight, and sex, so it should be good.

Thats kind of what I was thinking to.
