    Thanks, that makes sense. I actually meant heart rate when I said pace. I redid the drift test last week with a starting HR of 122, which I was able to hold steady in the last 3 minutes of my warmup. Ended up with a 6 percent drift, so I will try again, starting with a slightly lower HR.

    Hi Seth,

    Thanks for your reply. During my warmup, I had to fiddle with the speed quite a bit to get a pace that felt right, so my starting heart rate was actually 130, but it varied a lot throughout the warmup. Should I redo the test, knowing now roughly what my AET pace is, or can I safely assume that my AET is some number below 125, say 120?
