Pulse rate-vo2max
Done some research, found this:
% VO2MAX---------%MAX PULSE------ACTUAL PULSE
35 (jog)-----------------55------------106
50 (easy)---------------60------------116
60 (steady)-------------73------------141
70 (slow marathon pace)80------------155
80 (fast MP)------------88------------170
(Aprox lactate threshold)
90 (10k)----------------93------------180
95 (5k)-----------------98------------190
100 (3k)---------------100-----------194
Points to note i)There is no point using a heart monitor during a race you will be up by 10+bpm due to adrenalin.
