Yep kids. This is a reasonably likely outcome for some male ‘endurance athletes’ eventually, as was told to me by a cardiac specialist I was referred to a few years back. Plenty of studies on this stuff, yet still I find it hard to take it easy.
I suffer from ectopics and occasional exercise-induced arythmias. Really should take it a bit easier (at 39), but being an obsessive-compulsive competitive type, like many around these parts, I find it hard.
In fact, it’s something I feel that, even, STW may facilitate in me.
It’s often like virtually hanging out with a bunch of exercise-addicted-addicts around here. I used to be fairly chilled out in a bike till I came on here 10 years ago. (Probably also something to do with my exercise-obsessed dad dying of a heart attack around then, which was still kinda fresh in my mind)
Funny thing is, I don’t even race! (Except myself, constantly).
Take it easy kids (and the OP)… 🙂
