Don't worry ..be Happy :-)

Hi There,

Two years today since my PM implant. Don't know it's there - take part in most sports - kayaking, jogging, circuit training, mountain biking, swimming, surfing, mountaineering and at 56 the oldest player in our football team (soccer for those in the US)

So don't give up ..you'll get there

Heapy

Your meant "Be Heapy didn't you"?

Sure great when it is all going well. I sure know the feeling although I'm not quite as athletic as you are. I'm the oldest one in our Four Wheel Drive club and at 82 still jump out of the Jeep and climb hills on foot to look at old mines.

This was refreshing to hear I am 42 love to run bike, work out ,and play beach volley ball. I had my pacemaker implanted 12 days ago and I feel so lost. Like I am so restricted but your post gave me hope.

thanks

And damn if you ever get to Colorado over here in the states look me up. Don't run anymore due to an incident with an SUV while cycling (a year after I got my pacer) but the kayaking, mt. biking and mountaineering all sound like fun to me, even if it has been a few years since I did some (not due to health, due to 2 kids 16 and 12 who keep me busy with their activities).
