41 bpm, part III

Today I'm not going into the office. This counts as a day off under the réduction du temps de travail agreements, whereby those of us on salary get a day off a month instead of working 35-hour weeks.

Before walking out of the garage, I noticed my heart rate was slower than it usually is when I head out the door to run at work. It was down in the mid-60s rather than the mid-70s. Am I that much more stressed out at work? Do I drink too much coffee? (Sun offers employees free coffee and tea.)

Anyway, I sat down for a moment and sure enough could drop to 41 bpm. I didn't have the patience to try for 40.
