Personal:

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.

Bike ride 8.6 miles for 30 minutes followed by seated calf raises and decline sit-ups.

Pushed mowed (no self propel) the lawn after work for 90 minutes.  If you've done it, you know it's a workout.
