    My heartrate runs around 190 when I run. Are you sure it was 190 and not 290. I would think you would have felt seriously ill with a heartrate that high. Definately see a doctor before doing any exercise if so.

    I would guess that part of the problem is that you counted wrong as well - that's nearly 5 beats per second - counting manually (I know *I* couldn't count that fast accurately). the comment earlier about it being possible with runs of V-tach is true - but that's being counted on a cardiac monitor, not by checking your pulse manually - also, V-tach doesn't conduct a pulse the same way a standard beat does. Counting a pulse rate vs. counting peaks in electrical activity in your heart are sometimes different.

    Everyone else has reiterated that you should talk to your doc as well.
