Stayed up to 2am to watch the first few results which confirmed the exit poll. Managed a good mile into Kendal and back from up nr the Rifleman which therefore included the climb up Beasts.

ahr:108 max:136 slept:5.7

Usual parking at Trump P&R then brisk walk along GBW to Adds and back. Pulse was a little high on the way out, probably due to poor overnight sleep and anxiety about the heart. Better on return after chatting to the nurse.

ahr:132 max:169 slept:5.1

Easy jog from Elmbridge to the OT and then to the Tany's Dell CT junction and back... cold and pulse surprisingly high. Might have been due to long day and less sleep than should be having.

Helm Crag - Wainwright: dropped Sarah and Cocoa off at Lncrigg and parked in the village so jogged the first mile. Easier after that; got well and truly soaked and thoroughly cold and miserable by the end. A vegan blackberry & apple crumble crepe in Emma's restored my mood perfectly.

Home to recuperate and recover... feeling okay (apart from cold as run out of oil so no heating!).

Note
slept:6.2 (rest day)

Work early ahead of the day at Papworth. Into Cath Lab at 10.15m for another angiogram. First two stents are working fine and the Dr decided not to put a third stent into the second artery as c. 'only' 50% blocked. On meds and have to exercise (!) and eat even better to keep disease in check. Wont improve now which is the sobering stat.
