Short recovery run with my dog.

I have to say that one thing I like about my Garmin Watch is that it knows when my heart is out of whack and to change my workout automatically.

I’m exhausted and a little short of breath. But we still got it done.

First outdoor run in a week after an afib attack last week and I swear I almost killed myself.

Breathing was a failure with the heat and humidity. There was a lot of run / walk and I’m thinking I hurt my foot because there is something wrong with this specific pair of Novablast.

Or I think there is

To my friends in RI, would you believe this race is closer to you than it is to me?

I wish I thought I would be ready to run it because I absolutely love The Poconos and this looks beautiful

Monday Runday.

Was supposed to be 20 minutes of goal pace sandwiched between 30 easy minutes.

I felt good and pushed it a little harder and ran it between 6.9 and 7.1 mph and keeping my average heart rate at 135, although on flat ground.

Human. You watch Project Hail Mary.  I will sleep and dream of eating people’s heads.

No way I was running outside today.

Didn’t mess with elevation on the treadmill today.

Started at 5.3 mph and for the first mile, I increased .1 for every half mile

For miles 2 and 3 I increased .1 for every .4

Then every .3.

This was while subtracting .1 for every 2 songs.

Setting my playlist to random and Having Meatloaf’s “Bat out of Hell” took up most of miles 2 and 3 which gave no decrease until mile 4.

This as my playlist did not leave me too many opportunities to decrease.

But with an average heart rate of 116, I probably could have skipped decreasing altogether.

I’m curious? Any other runner with afib that don’t have anyone who understands to talk with?
