Hi, there.
I am finding the "productive" or "unproductive" or "recovering" commentary on my watch detrimental to my mental health. While I think this idea of productivity in a run is BS for everyone (what exactly is "productivity" for a run??), I'm a former competitive distance runner over 50 and I know how to assess data. I recognize that my running serves many purposes - key among them is my mental health. I also have the larger context for why I'm do what I'm doing each day and what might be happening in my life that is impacting how my run feels.
While I know that I am a better judge of my training than my watch, some small but persistent part of my brain gets distracted by the watch's judgement. I think I had a glorious and restorative dawn run by the lake and then my watch tells me it was unproductive and I feel - at least in small part - like I did it wrong.
Please tell me there is a way to keep getting the HR, GPS, spm, elevation, etc. data without the freaking commentary...
Thanks for reading!
