My first response was going to be I'm fat, but then I noticed the dispartiy. I was running 1000m at about 4:10 not 500m. I wasn't going by the monitors number for 500m, I have no idea why though, that is less work. Also, I probably did a bit more than 20 mins, I think the monitor showed about 2:10 f...

Thanks again,

Howie
