That is pretty much it, my understanding from my garmin and Dr phil maffeton's book is
zone 5 max sprint, can only hold for 3 mins. 220 bpm minus your age as a rough guide.
zone 4 threshold (my 5km pace).
zone 3 (my marathon pace).
zone 2 easy, fat burning should be able to go all day, 180 bpm minus your age plus 10 if your fit.
zone 1 warm up, cool down
I think there are lots of slightly different % depending who your taking to but they are all roughly the same.
They like to say zone 2 is the base of your fitness pyramid.
your walking around town might only be zone 1

Yeah, I was thinking about it later... walking around town has lots of stops and starts at traffic lights so it might not be good enough... but I could easily spend time on a treadmill listening to a podcast or watching a show. I'll start it tomorrow and try to get it in 3 times a week.
