Thanks so much!!
Take my hat of Sir
Thanks
The formula 220 minus age is known to be underestimating older runners. However, 194 max HR is very high and might suggest there was a "blip" or spike. Look carefully at the HR graph on the Garmin app to find any unusual spikes. If you have never passed 180 on a very hard run, it could be another indication of this to be not the right max HR
Are you using a watch or chest strap to monitor your heart rate? 190 seems extremely high. Has it been that high normally? I wish my threshold was that high. I usually cap out at 165.
Congrats on breaking the
Thanks! I’m using a Garmin chest strap. My heart rate has always been high.
Heart rate is so tricky for me I don't quite understand it. When I started running 3 months ago it would spike up to 195+ barely doing anything. I just ran yesterday for 7 miles with 4 miles at 8 min mile pace and it only got to 181. So I have no clue what my max heart rate is but the default for most watches uses the 220 - age formula. I want a watch like yours that will adjust it like that, that's cool. I might get a chest strap but I've been using a hydration vest this summer so I won't be able to wear it.
It’s a mystery to me too and I have no idea how Garmin determines the Max HR, but my average rate is around 156 using a strap.
Once you start 'slimming down' YOU WILL get faster. .. All in Time of course.
I’m living proof of that! Thanks.
