Looking for coaching - focus on optimizing cardio health/improvement vs time/distance
I have been running for about 20 years but more for fun, to explore new places, or zone out mentally than racing. Recently, I got a HRM and what I had thought was moderate effort ends up being in max zone pretty much all the time. Which isn’t great. Long story short, I want to figure out a cardio running and/or walking routine to figure out what’s normal for me and that will help drive improvements over time. Most coaches seem focused on time/distance goals, which obviously are correlated, but I would like someone with experience and understanding of heart health and training as well as running mechanics etc. Does anyone come to mind in the NYC area (pref Brooklyn)? Thanks to everyone!
