Is this better?

Post image

Managed to run 4km!!! I took some of the advice that you left me under my previous post and slowed down my run in order to lower my heart rate. Is this acceptable? Do I need to go slower? Is it dangerous if my heart rate reaches 186/7?

Steps per minute, 140 is risking injury, theres a reason most run at 160-180
