New light on the perplexing problem of how a human being can complete something like an Ironman.
According to some winning authority on the Net it's all about heart rate monitors, briefly one subtracts one's age from 180 and this gives an upper limit to exercise.
I set off at a reasonable pace and glance at the monitor - 215, Jeezo!
According to the winning authority the problem is having the patience to run slowly enough to condition the heart.
However I've found that this can be easily achieved by meandering bare feet across a ploughed field.

Ploughed field? Why don't you use the road? Or did Dr Oetker give you some new instructions?
This would make a great typically British movie; even better than Rocky pounding beef in the meat freezer to train.
You've got to vary the running surface to develop the muscles in the feet.
The hard going slows the pace enough to stay in the 130 to 140 bpm.
