June 3rd 2012
So, now I really have to get off my butt and get moving.... I had a treadmill stress test this past wednesday with my cardiologist and he said it looked good! He approved me to start running again but to keep my heart rate down at around 140 for the first few weeks to see how it goes. If all goes well, I can push it up…
