@ukrunchat I’m looking for advice - My HR for a hard 5k might have peaked at 173 bpm 6 months ago, now I struggle to break 161bpm whilst the effort feels the same! (And I get a faster time) is this because I’m fitter?! Can your max HR decline with fitness? #ukrunchat

[Alex Ashley-Roberts @AlAshleyRoberts]

@marigold_bac @UKRunChat Interesting...thanks Steve. And then start a new cycle to get up another level I guess...

[Alex Ashley-Roberts @AlAshleyRoberts]

@fellrunningandy @russell_runner Thanks Andrew 👍🏻 I’m going to give hills some attention and see how that goes

[Alex Ashley-Roberts @AlAshleyRoberts]

Hi @russell_runner, I’m struggling to get my HR above 161 bpm no matter how hard I’m able to push my legs (they give up after a while)...I would hit 173 bpm ish on a hard 5k 6 months ago...I have been training well since then, just wondering if this is because I’m fitter?

[Alex Ashley-Roberts @AlAshleyRoberts]

@HayFan @russell_runner Thanks Noel 👌🏻 no tech issues, so will look at some different intervals and hills

[Alex Ashley-Roberts @AlAshleyRoberts]

@russell_runner Thanks man - fascinating how many ways there are to get from ‘a to b’! I’ll give it some thought 👍🏻

[Alex Ashley-Roberts @AlAshleyRoberts]

@russell_runner No worries. Do you you train my pace then?

[Alex Ashley-Roberts @AlAshleyRoberts]

@UKRunChat Thanks - it makes sense. It’s just the effort for 161pbm feels high! I used to run a half marathon at that 161 bpm and now that’s my 5k heart rate...maybe I need a rest and then I can hit a 5k with more effort?

Thank you for all the support @BorisJohnson, @RishiSunak & team. This is the first time I’ve felt like a British government is fully focussed on doing what’s right for UK citizens and businesses #FaithRestoring in politicians

Does anyone want to run the Manchester Marathon on the 7th of April? I have a place available #ukRunChat @UKRunChat @parkrunUK @runr_uk @dads_running please can you share - would be a shame to waste

@Markwri21921120 Thanks mate - you too 👍🏻

[Alex Ashley-Roberts @AlAshleyRoberts]

@Markwri21921120 Lower right leg - feels more than muscular and have had it on and off for a couple of weeks. Done a load of physio but I just need to stay off it. Hitting the bike instead for now. How’s your foot?

[Alex Ashley-Roberts @AlAshleyRoberts]

@Markwri21921120 @runr_uk @UKRunChat @parkrunUK @clifton Lost a bit of ground over the last couple of weeks - holiday and other commitments, but should bounce back pretty quick 👍🏻
