Faster Pace Higher Rate

In our experiment my group and I tested if the higher pace of movement would affect your heart rate. We believed that heart rate would increase with the pace of movement.  Before each one of us ran, walked, and jogged we checked our heart rate. So, Samantha, Tenchita, Katie, and I each ran, walked, and jogged down the gym hallway. Our results that we got from measuring the distance was that our heart rate increased a little when we ran and jogged. Then we tested how jogging, running, and walking affects our heart rate by testing each movement by time doing 45 second intervals. We had a greater increase in our heart rate by running, and jogging by doing it for 45 seconds. Our hypothesis was correct in our experiment because the pace of movement does increase your heart rate.
