Great.......

Cyclists would know this very well...."spin to win". Not to say it's impossible to gun at > 200 spm in a 5k or even 10k, but......balance is better/more efficient and if want to get well under 20. And srsly, doesnt mean that one can even sustain 200spm even if one wants to, some cant even run that turn over that for 30 seconds even if forced to......maciam hard limiter like that

I'll just let AI explain :

Yes, running at a very high cadence with a smaller stride length can increase your heart rate, especially in the short term. At the same speed, a higher cadence requires your heart to work harder, making you breathe harder and feel more tired initially, as you're using your calf muscles more frequently and your heart has to pump blood at a faster rate. Over time, your heart muscle can become stronger, making this more efficient.

At least you can turnover fast. Some folks cant even manage 185-190spm range.
For me in cycling, i sometimes alter between high cadence and low cadence, trying to get at least a wee bit of "recovery" in but still maintaining some decent power, be it HR or neuro / muscularly.

In cycling, similarly we have a neuromuscular aspect, as in the circumference (distance travelled) of the feet is fixed per revolution, as we spin higher rpm, this distance/speed increases until neuromuscularly we hit a limit....
Also part of the reason why some fare better on shorter cranks and can spin a wee bit higher rpm.

Under $300 for Garmin, I think for dedicated running watch is the Garmin 165. it's GPs is only single band. So won't be accurate as those that are dual bands like 265, 570 or 970. And hence their instant pace is more useable.
265 has stopped selling in Singapore officially. Don't know if you can still get it for cheap now since it's EOL here.
570 is the current mid level. I think this is the best features to price ratio model, You just missed the 11.11 sales where you can get it at around $480 with vouchers all stacked.

I know a national runner with a long run of 170spm, his tempo (6km) is 172 spm. Sub 16 min 5k guy. Was a 800/1500 runner in the past, maybe high stride length and low cadence.

lots of air time... the stride should look "power"
if only i got into running at a younger age........

recent observation... running in spikes seems to encourage longer stride length. the calves and quads do take a beating the day after thou :ROFLMAO:
