& data from #KubiosHRV shows that
My Readiness is the highest it's been in 3 months
My Resting Heartrate, in the mid-50s bpm, is at its lowest in 3 months
My Sympathetic Nervous Activity is nice and high, as is my Parasympathetic Nervous System Activity - And they're balanced.

#VisibleHealth morning check-ins for the past 2 weeks show a plateauing of my Heartrate Variability in the low 60s, and then a rise to the mid-60s in the past 3 days...

Thursday morning and another busy day ahead: Teaching and my Lunchtime Club, then a 3-hour Parents' Evening (online), followed by Orchestra Rehearsal until 10pm.
But my #LongCovid body is in the best place possible, due to careful #pacing and no recent infections 🤞

Wednesday 2:45pm: I've only reached my 'Exertional' heartrate zone for 3 (separate) minutes, despite having taught 4 back-to-back hour-long lesson before lunchtime!
More than 7 #VisibleHealth PacePoints behind today's pacesetter, so I'm using my hour-off this afternoon to walk along the seafront 😊
