Easy run. Once again, the weird HR thing happened. Normal until about the first quarter mile, then up to 170 until about 1400m, then back down to normal. Weird. I noticed this happened last year, too, but I always attributed it to a flaky HR monitor. Flaky heart?
Average HR 131 for the run. Feeling a bit of a cold still. No worse, no better. Workout tomorrow or Wednesday.

next time you get the high heart rate showing on your monitor stop and check your pulse with your finger.
i found out over 10 years ago that i was getting rapid heart rates for real,had tests at hosp[tal,and they said i had a problem with the nerves to my heart,said the type of palputions i had was not dangerous but they could do an op to burn the troublesome nerve out.i did not have the op,i still get the high h.r. sometimes, sorry don,t want to worry you it could just be a c.b. radio or something messin up your p.r.monitor.
Thanks for the info. I've checked with the finger, and the HR appears to be accurate. It only seems to be happening on days when I'm feeling like a cold is coming on, or in progress. Otherwise I don't notice it.
I also wondered about interference, but I run out and back routes as well as routes in completely different directions, and the HR according to the watch is high during the first mile no matter where I run (on the days it is high).
It's an interesting phenomenon which, so far, hasn't caused me much concern. But, I'll keep an eye on it. Cheers!
