I heart you heart rate monitor friend

So for the last week I have been wearing a heart rate monitor for my workouts. Its been fun. I have a new relationship with my heart. I have never known what its been up to until now.

I am trying to work at 70-80% of my maximum heart rate. I thought I would be struggling to get to it, but actually I am near the top of it for the running, about right for the biking, and near the bottom for the swim. So I need to swim harder, and run easier. I would never have known that.

Its also pretty cool wearing it around the house because I am a geek like that.  When I shout at the kids (which is OBVIOUSLY never....) it goes pretty high!
