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.

Biked 15 min + Walk 15 min

It's been seven days since having a pacemaker installed.  Everything feels good right now.  No more bradycardia symptoms.  Still not sure how it will respond once I'm running again.
