Hello everyone, I have a question about heart rate monitoring.
I have always been reasonably fit and healthy. I started running 6 months ago and yesterday I ran my first 10k race. I ran it in 52.02 and when I checked my heart rate monitor it said my max heart rate had been 218, with avg at 190. This seems to be way above the generally accepted range. Does anyone else have a similarly high rate during exercise?
