Hi Char. And Nacy. Before I started running I was overweight, and not in good condition in my early to mid 20's. And I had some bad habits which I can say I don't have any of except the appetite! I took Rythmol back them for the atrial fib. The running got me to where I have never had to take any meds for my heart. It amazes me that all my blood work came back clean this last fall. With my weight, I'm surprised I don't have cholesterol problems, but I never have. My biggest problem now is arthritis. I've got it in all my major joints. The back is my weakest point. My GP recommends water aerobics, and I agree that it would make me feel better to get my heart pumping faster again. Getting old ain't no fun! Dan
