Day Off PR!

Wow, PR on my day off.

I've had Pre-Hypertension all my adult life. When I was in my early 20's I rode my bicycle 20 miles each weekday and 40-50 miles on the weekend. I still had blood pressure just short of hypertension.

Using the VO2Max protocol, and hitting 183 bpm or 103% of heart rate for my age, I must have blasted open some blockage out of my arteries.

Before I started preparing for the RKC I was 136/91.
After the RKC I was 126/87.
This morning I measured 115/74 this is the lowest I ever remember having. 

It was just one reading, two more in a row and it is officially GOOD!
