Maximum heart rate

Men: subtract age from 220
women: subtract age from 227.

Following this crude formula, my maximum heart rate should be around 295-292. Running, or exerting myself maximally resulted in an actual heart rate of 177, ie. when i first started running last week. This week my heart rate just hoovers around 150 during soccer, running or high exertion. It relaxes pretty well, drops back down to 105 bpm not to long after.

A little pride: Ghana

Blocks are right around the corner, peering peering at me at my fellow students. We're rocking the books. No problem. I'm looking forward to the world cup starting. Lets go Ghana.
