Being Given the all Clear

Following on from one of my previous posts I have now been given the all clear. Several blood tests, ECG and an echo and they can find nothing wrong with me. I am starting to get my confidence back and have had 3 second place finishes at parkrun but can't seem to get that P1. This week I set my fastest time since the incident but I am still nearly 30 seconds away from what I did 2 weeks before the incident. 


Then this morning I was feeling pretty good and run, fasted, up the steepest and longest hill in the area. On strava it is actually a segment and I got a new PB for the route, not bad for a solo effort the day after parkrun.
