I think your max heart rate changes with age. They did give me some training sheets. But because I'm not interested in racing we didn't spend too much time on them. You know - I want to be fit enough to race, but not actually race.

I have noticed that my heart rate drops quite dramatically as I've gotten more fit. I've watched it as we've made a descent on the tandem, drop from175 to low 100s.

He suggested coming back in a year. I'll probably do it. This kind of thing gives me a goal to shoot for.
