High Heart Rate when Running | E5
from Fix My Running · host Matthew Boyd
A question from Warren... When analyzing the heart rate of my one friend, I see that her heart rate shoots up to Zone 5 within minutes at the start of her runs. She stays in zone 5 for the duration of her runs unless she starts walking. This is despite running at a slower (fairly comfortable) pace. In February she completed a half marathon and she spent 90% of the run in zone 5 with an average heart rate of 174 bpm. What type of training would you prescribe to improve this and allow her to run longer and keep her heart rate lower? (Her half marathon time was 2:34:45 (and her HR was above 167bpm for 2 hours 28 minutes of that) Click here to read the full show notes Would you like your running or triathlon questions featured in a future episode?
