Like several other commenters here, I find trying to track run pace during Z2 runs quite tedious.
Due to issues with my Garmin watch, I switched to setting my laps to 1/2 mile and basically run by perceived effort checking that with my average pace every 1/2 mile.
I tend to run my Z2 runs at the upper end of Z2 (typically shoot for around 9:45 with a 9:34 upper Z2 limit). This means that at times I will catch myself drifting into ZX during each 1/2 mile but generally am pretty good about keeping my average 1/2 mile pace in Z2.
Curious your thoughts on this approach.
