Cardiac Memo
In descending order…
- 170 bpm - chasing roadies
- 156 bpm - steady 24hr racing pace
- 105 bpm - driving down a quiet M5
- 85 bpm - being driven down a busy M5
- 84 bpm - galloping a large and psychotic horse while trying not to run over the dogs
- 70 bpm - brisk walk
- 65 bpm - sitting on large/psychotic horse in walk (still trying not to run over dogs)
- 60 bpm - standing RHR
I was fairly suprised that riding our most stressful horse was still more relaxing than being a passenger in a car on the motorway.
But the other day I managed to hit a new low. 45 bpm. Stroking the cow-horse while she nibbled my hand. That’s lower than when I wake up.
Looks like I should take the big lump everywhere with me to calm me down :-)
Anyway, now that my heart has currently settled down and there’s no palpitations to record the NHS has finally fitted me with a cardiac memo.
Cardiac Memo - Not Fun To Wear
I need to drink red wine (banned), stay up late, then start on some Chipps strength espresso.
