I’ve been using heart rate monitors in my training for about 45 years (my dad started me out using a ‘cardiotachometer’ strapped across my chest like a School Patrol Belt). It’s been an informative ride.

When I coached college track, I bought Garmins for my team. We did rough max HR tests on the track to (6:00 as fast and far as you could go). What I discovered is that there were outliers on that bell shaped curve of MaxHR. I had one 20 yo young woman whose max was ~170 and another whose max was 210. Both of them equally talented and speedy. The only way to know is to test. And retest.
