Just had *another* five hours of sleep 😮

Feeling much better for the Rest and, with approaching eight #visible_health PacePoints in hand, #Pacing should be very easy today 😊

It has been a long time since I walked to town 🤔

0 out of today's 24 pace points used. I have been in bed for 15 hours

I've now been using #EliteHRV Morning Check-ins for 500 days!

Not sure when I started using #KubiosHRV but it's longer than that.

This morning is around Day 1250 of using #Visible_health for Morning Stability Readings.

I've collected a lot of data since 2023!

Arriving at work (school) having Rested longer in bed, allowing me to drop 5 #Visible_health Pace Points behind today's Pacesetter.

Perfect timing for a slower start to my work-day 🙏

0.7 out of 24 daily pace points. Heartrate currently 77bpm

@benking01.bsky.social Sep 30, 2026, 3:55 AM

And #visible_health is rewarding me with yet another 5 out of 5 'Stable And Improving' score.

Must Pace Carefully - as it says here.

Re-setting my alarms and going back to sleep 🙏

5. Stable and Improving. Morning resting HR lower than my normal range. Morning HRV higher than my normal range.

I suppose I now need to start wearing my #visible_health armband in bed.

@benking01.bsky.social Sep 28, 2026, 4:47 PM

...So I'm well-ahead of my #visible_health Pacesetter 👇

Only one thing for it: Park up and recline on the back seat of my car, in advance of tonight's band rehearsal. This invariably gets my heartrate back down!

21.0 out of today's PacePoints budget of 24.0. 4 ahead of my pacesetter

@benking01.bsky.social Sep 28, 2026, 11:41 AM

...I'm only 1.3 #visible_health PacePoints ahead of my daily Pacesetter 🙂

Lunch break - But I'm sitting here with my feet elevated for a few minutes before heading off to eat.

#Pacing to avoid overexertion and the #PEM associated with my #LongCovid 🙏

10.7 out of 24 daily pacepoints. Pacing line is ahead of my pacesetter line

@benking01.bsky.social Sep 26, 2026, 12:29 PM

Pacing is easy on weekends when I have nothing planned.

About an hour of varied housework, spread across a couple of hours, and just a single #visible_health PacePoint used 🙂

Makes me wonder how my #LongCovid illness might ease or worsen if I lived a less active life 🤔

Visible Health heartrate graph for the last couple of hours. HR staying below 100bpm. Lots of rest - lying on the sofa

Well-within today's #visible_health PacePoints because I have mostly been lying down today - including during my time here in the gym!

#Pacing and #Micropacing to avoid exertion and debilitating #LongCovid #PEM symptoms 🙏

4.8 out of 22 daily pace points used so far today. It's after 4pm

Heartrate graph shows HR reaching 140bpm during running

@benking01.bsky.social Sep 20, 2026, 7:23 AM

Sunday. #visible_health 5 out of 5 for 2 days in a row!

Pacing well. Must be careful today, as I'm gardening *and* hoping to visit the gym 🙏

#LongCovid #PEM #SymptomManagement

Stable and Improving. 5 out of 5 Stability. Resting HR low. Morning HRV higj

@benking01.bsky.social Sep 7, 2026, 4:51 PM

Not exactly a Crash-And-Burn, but I'm 3 #Visible_health Pacepoints ahead of my daily Pacesetter.

You can see when that Lunch Duty took me ahead of my Pacing line 👇

Leaving work for the evening...
