It’s coming up on midday, and I’m packed, ready for the last six miles back to the trailhead. It turns out my ‘Bad Decision’ to carry on with my hike on Day Two was a good decision after all.

I’ve managed to keep my hiking pace down the last couple of days, and I’ve stopped frequently. My heart rate has remained below 115 BPM most of the time. Now, I need to get back to the car without bringing on my AFIB, and everything will be good.
