Normal: It is normal for the heart to race when you are doing heavy work/exercise as shoveling snow. The heart rate will be even higher if you are out of shape. If you train yourself and do exercise daily I predict your heart rate will not be as fast when you shovel snow next!!! Get yourself in shape. It is IMPORTANT!!!
