140

Don't tell Dr. H, but my HR got up over 140 on my ride to work yesterda. And today. Both times, up to 149, before I noticed, slowed down, and tried to slow my breathing. Both times, the exact same place (bridge approach on the east side of the Hawthorne Bridge).

The good news is that it came down quickly and my HR was over 140 for maybe 20-30 seconds. But still. Big no-no. And even more so, since it was ego-driven (trying to keep up with someone who started out slowly - I didn't want to get stuck behind - and then picked up speed - I didn't realize how much faster they were going).

Good thing I'm wearing my HRM, eh?
