A day measured in no PacePoints 😮
After being driven home from my dental surgery, I then slept for 4 hours...
Strong drugs those painkillers and sedatives 😮
At last - almost 5 months since my dental infection began - the offending molar tooth 🦷 has been removed 🎉

Am going to have to pace myself really carefully this Monday.
A few unexpected periods of exertion before the school day has even started.
Approaching my pace-setting marker 👇 and one-fifth of my daily PacePoints before even starting my full teaching day.

My gym sessions are now twice-weekly 🙏
Flexibility, Strength & Cardio.
Fewer than three #VisibleHealth PacePoints used despite (carefully paced) weight training and two runs on the treadmill - one minute of which was sprinting 🙂

As someone with #LongCovid I have to Pace myself constantly.
Over the past TEN DAYS, I have focused on keeping my heartrate particularly low. This has been made possible by my Easter Break from teaching 👇
My #VisibleHealth PacePoints (PP) use has dropped from around 15-17 PP down to 5 PP per day 👇

So I've checked my #VisibleHealth pacepoints 👇
Only half (12) of today's allocation of pacepoints used so far 👍
But my #KiActiv movement data reveal what my wobbly legs were starting to tell me: I've just exceeded my nominal 60 daily minutes of 'Moderate' movement.
Will go Slow-Mo. this evening!

Exactly four years since my life changed
The SARS-C0v-2 virus gave me C0vid
The C0vid gave me blood clots
The clots gave me a pulmonary embolism
The lack of sound medical advice made me over-exercise in an attempt to 'clear the clots'
This gave me disabling #LongCovid

Up and out early for #MothersDay morning and a lovely coastal walk.
Took everything slowly. Walking with partner's elderly mum helped!
I've sometimes used 2 PacePoints before leaving home in the morning 😄

I have an earlier lunchtime today, so I've only taught 4 groups this morning (my tutor group, a Year 7 class, a Year 8 group & my Year 11s)
Nevertheless, it's good to see that I have #Visible_health PacePoints in hand: 2 PacePoints behind today's PaceSetter 🙏
Makes sense: Had great HRV on waking 👇

Strolling slowly around the area of Stratford-Upon-Avon where I'm staying.
Very slowly. Not because I can't move any faster, but because I know that it won't take much to over-exert.
Workload was so high that I started working before 5am this morning.
Then drove 4 hours after work 🙏

Let's see how this pans-out:
I haven't exceeded my daily #VisibleHealth PacePoints budget of 27 for over a month now, and during the holidays I have much more control of my movements...
Just re-set my daily budget to 20 PacePoints, to encourage myself to pace even more carefully 🙏

0.2 PacePoints 😄 - Less than 1% of my daily budget!
It's 6pm and I've only use 3.5 #visible_health PacePoints 🙂

Good timing, as days don't get much busier than today...
Getting up earlier than usual, so starting to use-up PacePoints and my Movement Quota earlier.
Full teaching day including moving between classrooms and Physics labs.
Union meeting after work.
Orchestra rehearsal until 10pm!
