Sunday 18th February 2018 When I find myself in times of trouble
Morning!
Up early to watch cricket.
Lyrics: When I find myself in times of trouble
What: probably exercise bike
Why: somewhat limited at present!
OH: are you running on your own or with a group? The latter is always easier when struggling.

Yesterday's lyrics - My Life by Kaiser Chiefs.
Keep doing what you can Alehouse, not the same and not what you want to be doing but better than doing nothing.
Not good that the new job is interfering with your running RFJ.
What: LSR/maybe gym this afternoon
Why: need the miles, forecast is good/depends on Mark
Last hard: having too many good sources of motivation from the thread
Last rest: 24/1
Lyrics - yes.
Decided to take the pressure off and forgo Loch Katrine marathon (18 March). Appears to be just quads that are weak. Will try to get back to some longer pool swims and start at the beginning again for running.
On a positive note, I know the lyrics.
SC: Damn. Gutted for you
We're off on hols for a few days. Just a 2hr drive to the North Sea. I can do with some inhalation therapy to help my asthma. Will likely not run much which is why I did a heavy week this week (62 miles).
So now I can chill. I must admit that the last week has taken it out of me. hope long beach walks
mean good sleep
What: 4 miles
why: short and easy as I went long yesterday
Last hard: all of last week
last rest: 17/12
lyrics: yes
The SVT can occur at any time but usually when exercising. There is no particular speed/time/intensity/rhyme or reason why but due to the "other" condition I have to stop immediately and bring under control. Yesterday I spiked to 248bpm and had two episodes each over 3 minutes before I could drop down. It stops as quickly as it starts but can last for hours in some cases. My EP when discussing the second short circuit told me he could not pass a cigarette paper between the problem spot and my AV node. He could almost guarantee damage and suggested that if it was his heart he would not go for the op unless it was impossible to limit/live with the SVT.
With a pacemaker you can actually have them tuned to your lifestyle and many people do run with them. It does radically change your lifestyle having something the size of a battery pack implanted in your body (They are fairly obvious if you look). You need an understanding EP/Cardio to get the gti version and have it tuned up and it does mean constant drugs. After 6 months of angst - two ops - 6.5 hours of surgery and yesterday I am not in the right place to make a ratioal and informed decision so time and discussion with my EP and Cardio will tell. There are many people worse off so I cannot really complain but...
What: Slow run
Why: Thinking time/clear my head
Last hard: Scribing above and seeing it in black and white
Last Rest: Friday
Lyrics: Indeed
Hope the cricket went your way Ale. Good call OH. Breathe deep and slow and enjoy the break Chicksta. LMH enjoy the run but please don't push too hard too quick. Have a good one.
That sounds like a plan OH.
Enjoy chicksta. I'm beginning to feel very much in need of a holiday unfortunately there isn't anything on the horizon just yet no matter how much I keep asking Mark.
What: lying on the sofa
Why: slept til 9:30 (unheard of), got up, felt worse than yesterday, lay on sofa
Last hard: feeling ill
Lyrics: yes, and I knew ale had set them before I opened the thread
SC wow I really feel for you. You're right, take some time to consider your options and talk it through with people
Chick enjoy Nordsee
Rfj hope your big training day goes well
Oh you've been through a lot, take it easy.
Have a lovely day all
Emz - get well soon
OH - sounds like a plan
SC - gutted for you. As you say it will need a bit of thought as to the best way ahead. I can't really help on that score but hopefully you get some clarity from the discussions.
What - 7.5 muddy, boggy trails
Why - arguably a recovery
last rest - 15/12
last hard - yesterday
Lunch at Birsay Bay tea room followed by walk up Marwick Head. Sunny and clear here.
Emz - hope you feel better soon
14.4m in two runs today 11.15 and 3.25
Take care
