I agree!
The whole time I had narrowed it down to either a faulty HR monitor or some discrepancy in LTHR indoors vs outdoors. I think the bottom line is that it's more difficult to achieve a higher LTHR indoors than out. There seems to be some anecdotal and evidence to back this up from a simple google search, Friel, etc.
