I walked 164 km during April 2024. Down from the 185 km I walked in April 2023.

I need to up my game again. I did 211 km during May 2023.

I have to return the heart monitor I’ve been wearing all week to the hospital tomorrow morning. I won’t miss wearing it.

No SVT symptoms in the last week,apart from two times today when it briefly felt like an SVT style heart racing incident was trying to start. Neither did.

The last time it happened was 22nd March when I mucked about with the times I took the Bisoprolol beta blocker. That was grim. That last standard incident was 18th January.

Exercising too much (The American Heart Association recommends 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week) can cause something called “athletic heart,” which can increase the risk of certain heart issues.

Heart monitor picked up. Staff member seemed surprised I walked to the department and wasn’t parked in the pick up area.

It comes with 7 sets of the electrodes you see on ECG machines. Two for each day.

I’ve to pick up a heart monitor from the hospital tomorrow to wear for a week. I wasn’t going to get it, as the Bisoprolol tablets seem to have dampened my SVT symptoms.

But then I thought I could use a £1900 medically certified heart monitor to validate the data reported by my Apple Watch Ultra. £1900 is what I’ll be billed if I don’t return the monitor after a week.

Out for the first 5k walk of the season. All my walks recently have been because I needed to go somewhere. Shops, cinema, etc.

Today’s walk is purely for the exercise.

My cardiologist used two Apple Watch ECG traces I sent him as part of a diagnosis of SVT last November.

After in person consultations were limited due to a COVID surge.

A recent study from Deakin University investigated the risks for cardiovascular disease (CVD) that come from the foods we choose to eat.

Drawing on data from a global disease burden study from 1990 to 2019, the researchers estimated how much death and disability could be attributed to hearts sickened and damaged by different foods.

The interesting thing: The dietary choices that drove the risk of heart disease were different between men and women.

A diet high in red meat for women and a diet low in wholegrains for men “were the two leading individual dietary risk factors for diet-related CVD burden in Australia”.

Stress in adolescence and early adulthood may contribute to the development of cardiometabolic diseases later in life, according to a new study led by Fangqi Guo at USC.

Researchers looked at the health information of 276 participants from the Southern California Children’s Health Study from 2003-2014 and a follow-up assessment from 2018-2021.

Participants with a consistently high adolescence‐to‐adulthood stress pattern had greater overall cardiometabolic risk, percent body fat, and odds of obesity in adulthood, compared with those with consistently low perceived stress. In adulthood, higher perceived stress was associated with increased overall cardiometabolic risk and higher blood pressure.

COVID shots protect against COVID-related strokes, heart attacks, study finds

"the bivalent booster was overall 47 percent effective at preventing COVID-related thromboembolic events, which again include strokes, blood clots, and heart attacks"

The authors recommend that, "to prevent COVID-19–related complications, including thromboembolic events, adults should stay up to date with recommended COVID-19 vaccination."

I was wearing new boots on my 5km walk yesterday. I’ll need to get thicker insoles as my feet were able to move inside them a bit. I got a friction blister on my right heel and another one on the ball of my left foot. Weirdly. I felt the heel one from about the 4km mark.

Ouchie! Treating with Germoline and non-adherent dressing pads.

I’d say that’s my 2023 walking workouts done. Currently on 2,350 km in total walked for the year. It was 2,485 km on 2022.

I walked 237 km during November. Roughly the same distance as I walked in November 2022. Although as you’ll see from the chart the opening 10 days of last month front loaded the month a bit.
