High Heart Rate

High Heart Rate

While running, I have have an unually high heart rate I believe.

I am 19, I don't smoke, I don't drink, I have been physically active with sports for 4 years, All around healthy, I eat well too, been in the Army for 13 months now.

I haven't worked out in about 2-3 months (due to moving, etc) but I wouldn't think it would affect me THIS much!!

While running, my heart rate is around 170-180. Thats at a slower running speed than usual. I use to be able to run 2 miles around 16:30-17:00 mins. Now Im at like a... 9 min mile :(

Could I have lost my running abilities THAT fast??

I can't workout for 2 months either since I just had surgery- No running, working out, NOTHING, lol which sucks. I use to be able to almost score a perfect score on the army Pysical Training test... now I am afraid I may get close to failing....



Do you think that heart rate could be normal?
If not, what is a normal range?
What should I do?


Thank you!!!
