sick run after a long work day, beautiful sunset around the county park and saw FIVE herons - 3 all together at one point which is crazy. Managed to get back up to 55k for the week which has been a struggle with work schedule and will be again this week, hopefully up to 60k the week after.

was gonna run but had an episode of vasovagal syncope (fainting) at work lol, wtf. lead nurse was talking to me about an incident report i might need to write for the coroner having just spent the entire morning writing one. felt myself going and next news im being placed in a chair and having monitoring hooked up to me bahhhhhhhg. heart rate of 36 tho and left ventricular hypertrophy on ecg.

gonna try get an echocardiogram just to be safe.

yikes dude! what happened?

I just kinda blacked out, didn't hit the floor as was caught and came round pretty quick. Think it was just a combination of working a lot, not sleeping enough, 10 mile run the day before and probably didn't rehydrate and refuel properly. But, having evidence of hypertrophy on my heart makes me worried enough in combination with this to try get a scan and see if there's anything untoward going on. The incidents at work are both investigations about people who died (I didn't do anything wrong but obviously still a bit scary having your question called in to practice).

Feel totally fine today.

Today

Meditation 1hr - marks 100 consecutive days of 1 hour daily meditating. truly one of the best things I've ever done for myself. it seems to have impacted every part of my life in a positive way. I'm less anxious, worried and stressed and find myself noticing and enjoying the little things much more. have no intentions to stop what so ever. almost wish i could make more time to commit to more.

Cycle 104km, 5h20m overall, 1190m of elevation.

lets just say running fitness really carries over to cycling. First time ive ridden a bike more than 10k in like a year! super enjoyed this gonna do more cycling for sure.
