Who wants to participate in my daughter's science fair project?

Two weeks is fine.  She would need the data by Feb 15th.  We are starting early! I need at least ten people.  I will share the results.  I realize that people are better at one than the other and if she write that up as a possible problem with her project it will be okay with her teacher.  Maybe I will ask each person which is their strength and weakness.  I am better at running too!

According to her teacher, you can do more than one in a day if necessary.  

Thanks for offering!

Sorry Phil..but this would require you to swim 3 times...

So your daughter is studying heart attacks?? 

I'm part of the desired demographic, and I'd be happy to send some HR data, but as an old guy, I don't go from zero to full-speed in the first 10 minutes. 

LOL.  It doesn't have to be full speed...I just didn't want any slacking!  Remember, this is a sixth grade project so it is not going to be published or anything.  I was thinking last night how to make it easier and not take so much help from people.  Like using LT heart rate data that people had already done.  

I wanted to make this easier but she had "big" ideas and wants mom to help her pull it off.  

I'm in.  I'll capture some data over the next two days and let you know.  I swim daily and alternate run and bike days.

Very cool!!  Thanks! 

Of course, I have to do this also!

Call my resting HR 52. 

HR after 500 yard warmup this morning:  140. 

Thanks! Just PM or post your data.  

McFuzz - Are you going to keep giving me data?

Sure glad I'm not old ......enough to volunteer.

Hey, I'll do that.

I'll have swim and run data this week, and ride data this weekend. All data will be in by Sunday.

Pollywog - thanks!! Keep it coming!

Lani - yes, more volunteers is good. Be careful with the stitches!!!

Rick - thanks!! I will catch up with you all on the west side one of these days for a training session. 

I think I need to make a chart for this data!! How come I always feel like my name should go on the science fair projects??  

Novel concept here, but how about your daughter make the chart and post it here? 

Just a caveat about my data:  I'll wear and report HRM data for biking and running, but I don't wear the HRM in the pool.  For swimming, I measure pulse over 15 seconds. 

I will have her do it tonight!  She decided to do this after watching Kona IM with me.  I am wondering if she picks topics that interest me to spend more time with me or so that I will help her.    Either way it is okay.  Last year she did heart rate and music.

Swimming: Just multiply by 4... That's what I am going to do for the swimming.

Are you using the same resting heart rate for everything? 

I think as long as everyone does the same intensity for each sport we will be okay.  For example, if you don't want to work at a high intensity, then to use a similar RPE for each.
