Happy Birthday

There is a formula used by the sports community to determine your theoretical maximum heart rate.
Max HeartRate = 220 - age
You can use this number to set zones of exercise and apparently you should spend a certain amount of time in each zone. Like most dogma, I thought it was complete crap. Having said that I will take the formula to determine my age. I hit a maximum heart rate of 181 while doing some workouts on my new trainer today. Lets see here, working backwards, I must 39!
Thanks to Cindy for keeping me so young.
