lactate threshold???

Can anyone explain please? Ive been running and have lactate threshold for running and everytime I finish my run I get a green arrow next to what I guess is my heart rate?

I have seen this little arrow red to but more recently its green. Can someone explain is this a good thing that its a green down arrow??

Thanks in advance.

hello,

yep - green is good :-) it means that you start to build up lactate at that pace having that heart rate.

if you're new to running with garmin, it takes some time until the algorithm in the watch will get trained and will adjust to your physiology.
