as long as your resting heart rate aint high you should be fine. i was running wednesday night and mine was 182, by the time i cooled down 3 mins later it was 145. before i went to the cardiologist my resting heart rate would get up to 185bpm sometimes out of no where, shyt would cause me to faint. my doctor said its fine to get that high as long as you are doing something that induces it.

Your max heart rate is 220 minus your age

you really dont wanna be at your max for long periods of time

look up resources on increasing your VO2 max if that is your goal
