Garmin run coach plan HR zone error

PeeJay 14 days ago

Hi, i am currently using the garmin run coach for my training. However, after the latest update the hr value have been increased by 2bpm across all 5 zones. For better context, my LTHT ish currently 180bpm, therefore my threshold run shd be at 180 bpm. However it's asking me to run at 182bpm instead when there's no chance to my LTHR value. Please kindly advice on this matter.

Why do you think it’s an error? Running slightly faster than LT pace is common, especially for LT intervals.

It’s pretty common to see recommendations to do threshold pace runs 5-10 sec per mile faster than LT pace, especially when you’re breaking it up into shorter intervals and not trying to do a full 30 min or whatever.
