      Those are some serious intervals. I need to redo my Ferris Bueler interval math ratios. I never had one lesson so I might steal your rations to study. Nice

      Saw your Garmin HR problems on Twitter...try this:
      1) Get rid of all moisture inside the battery compartment
      2) I would clean the metal contacts inside the battery compartment with rubbing alcohol and then dry completely
      3) Make sure the bendable metal contacts have enough flex to make a solid contact.
      4) Some batteries appear to be the right size but wrong NUMBER. Check on-line for exact battery number
      5) make sure your chest strap is tight enough and has a slight moist contact with your chest
      4) See if a friends HR strap works with your garmin as a test.
      5) Soft RESET the Garmin

      I hope it helps.

      Usually, the problem is in the battery compartment. If the metal contacts get dirty or oil on them, it won't make a solid connection.

      Enjoy

      No problem, I have trouble every 6-9 months and when I take care of the battery compartment, it is usually the problem.

      If you see signs of rust, get rid of it. Wipe/scrap gently

      There is also a rubber seal which is probably warped if you see signs of water in the battery compartment.
