Task: Measuring your heart rate after running - How do you feel after you have gone for a run or played your favourite sport? Tired right? This is because we need more energy,  for example to run, the heart beats faster to pump more oxygen around the body. When your heart beats it sends a wave of pressure through all of your veins in your body. We call this your pulse. In this activity you will measure your own pulse and compare it to after running or playing your favourite sport.

• What did you find out?
• What happened to your pulse rate after activity?
• Why do you think this happens?
