[RC] Heart Rates - Ridecamp Guest

==========================================

Is there a HRM that stores the data obtained during a 
ride and can download it into a PC for tracking?

Polar makes the widest variety of models (too many, actually) and most reliable 
quality. 

My memory isn't what it used to be so unless I bring>
a pen and a tablet with me I find that by the time
I get home except for exceptional information I've
forgotten most of the heart rates at the walk/trot/
canter.

I know what her baselines are and I've set the 
alarm to go off when it drops below 59 and above
150.>

No need to set an alarm at 150 unless you're tring to stay within a specific 
range, as in 140 to 150.  


I don't ride your typical endurance horse, I ride a 

13.3 hand POA but she's got excellent recoveries and 
a resting HR of 36.  She's also got a nice lean horse
type build.  

I am interested in learning what I can about feed, 
nutrition, exercise physiology, anything to ensure that
10+ years later both she and I can enjoy exploring
the trails.  I however do not ride to win but to finish
so I may not be the audience intended for this type
of information.  And since we've only done 2 LDs we
aren't really the endurance riders we aspire to be.  yet.>

Intelligence and curiosity are the first keys to success, in this game or any 
other. You've got a good start.
