I started more dedicated running and racing in my thirties.  Eventually I developed symptomatic bradycardia and SVT which required a cardiac pacemaker implant and a cardiac cath ablation.  It has taken a long time to get back to running consistently again.  Counting my blessings and trying to remain more balanced with fitness.

No run.  Feeling terrible today with post Covid symptoms.  Constantly smelling cigarette smoke which is making my breathing more shallow.
