I use to have a problem with heart rate getting out of control and I have beaten it. I can keep my heart rate low now. If I can just beat fatigue.
Cheers. It's too bad that regular folks can't be given personal masseurs, dieticians and relief from a job. For me - the job keeps me from building up enough reserve + with the added stress of project deadlines I can never get the sleep and rest needed to perform at a high level. That said - 45 miles is HUGE!!! Best with your fitness endeavor.
