Today I tried to push it again. Felt good on the first half. Checked my H.R. at the turnaround, it was 122 which is about 70% of my max. H.R. which is about 173. I felt like I was breathing pretty hard. But according to my numbers I could of pushed a little more. My time was 46:26. didn't make my goal of brakeing the 45 min. mark. Maybe next week.

Good job, and keep up the good work brother.

This is odd. Your HR range is just like mine - resting 48, max 174. 122 for me is conversational pace. I see no reason for you to feel any different at the same HR. Double-check your HR monitor if it is working correctly.

I don't have a H.R. monitor, I Just took the number 220 minus my age of 47, and I get for a max. HR of 173, 80%=138. 70%=121, and 60%=103. I got the 220 number from runner's world.

From Sasha Pachev on Thu, Nov 02, 2006 at 18:56:32

According to this formula, I am 46 years old (I am really only 33). 220 - age is only a mathematical expectation. The way to measure your max - find a place where you can run flat for about 0.5 mile and then finish the last quarter uphill. Run that stretch as hard as you can, and measure your HR as soon as you finish.
