My usual heart rate for running 10k would be between 158 - 168. Lately I ran a very good time at 154 so I thought this would mean I could go faster at the higher heart rate. But this is not happening.
I just cannot get my heart rate into that zone anymore. Today I was doing some repitions and I felt as though my chest would burst and even my arms were going sort of numb yet my HR stayed stubbornly at 145!! My legs were aching too. This has been happening most of this year so its not an isolated incident.
Take some time off. I had the same problem earlier this year. It could indicate overtraining. My HR was doing the same. I took 2 weeks off and maxed my HR at 179 the other day. And feeling faster and stronger too. Try it.

I second Roger Moore's comment. Your HR not getting up to it's usual is a good sign that you are not leaving enough time between work-out for full recovery.

Jaja--What is a typical training week like for you-- hours per day per discipline, what intensity? DO you take rest days?

In addition to the suggestions already posted, you might just run this past your doc. We just had a local triathlete drop dead of a heart attack during a run workout. These things sometimes happen, but I'd hate to think his body had been warning him for months and he just ignored it.
