I did my first Maffetone test today on a 1/10 mile crushed gravel track near my house. I believe it's an accurate distance. 58 degree, 75% humidity, dew point 50, and calm winds. I'm 34, but I'm using 145 as my MAF since I'll turn 35 in less than a month. I did a little over 2 mile warmup 21:05/131 (got to 145 at the end) and then set my alarm range for 143-147 and tried to stay within the beeps.
Mile 1. 9:18/145
Mile 2. 9:32/146
Mile 3. 9:35/145
Mile 4. 9:45/145
Mile 5. 9:52/146
STraM called these 5 miles on the track 4.83. The pace and surface were different, so I'll just leave the calibration alone. I still believe the track is accurate. The 7.07 miles at the top is what STraM reported.
