PM 2 mile walk on the treadmill followed by a yoga session. Feeling really well and antsy to get released by my cardiologist to introduce some light jogging/running soon.

AM - 3 miles of brisk walking with Finn followed by a yoga session (also with Finn who tends to disrupt).

Saw the doctor later in the morning and was given the "thumbs-up" that I can resume with some running. My limit is 3 miles per day for 8 weeks and then I can bump it up to 5 miles per day until the 90 day mark when I have a follow up visit to see how I am doing.

AM - 3 miles of actual running on the treadmill! 1 week post-heart catheterization and stent. It felt great to be running again. No issues at all that I had been experiencing prior to the procedure were present. Feeling very blessed.

Yoga session following the run. Been doing this 30 days of yoga from a youtube video that my daughter suggested whilst I was not permitted to run. Gonna stick it out to complete the course. I kinda like it. :)
