Fitbit heart rate

I use my Fitbit primarily to monitor my heart rate which is set at 60 BPM.   It is very reassuring to check the graph on the Fitbit app  on my phone in the morning  and confirm that my heart rate graph shows a straight line at 60  BPM.                 This will be extremely useful when my pacemaker is in the replacement mode AKA end of life mode when it locks in at 65 BPM.

nope but the fitbit might not properly read your rate...

You know you're wired when...

You take technology to heart.

I finished 29th in London in 2 hours 20 minutes 30 seconds which is my fastest with or without a device so clearly it didn’t slow me down ! I had no problems apart from some slight chaffing on my scar - more Vaseline next time.
