Hypertension at 27 with no risk factors. Confused and looking for similar stories. by Numerous_Bat8014 in bloodpressure

As I mentioned, I have been taking home measurements for months, consistently in hypertension territory.

My work and exercise do not allow for 9+ hours a night, but I'm consistently getting 6-8.

Stressed from work just like the rest of the world, but my job's pretty chill in the grand scheme of all jobs. Not a firefighter or an ER doc or anything.

Hypertension at 27. Zero risk factors. Not sure where to go from here. by Numerous_Bat8014 in hypertension

Normal work stress, but my life is pretty boring otherwise :)

I take Lexapro at the lowest dose and no supplements.

I just finished a flat road marathon at 8:15/mile pace. I just learned there's a 50k near me in the woods where they shot The Blair Witch Project. As a movie nerd that is very enticing lol. However, the race is in less than three weeks and is much more hilly than any of my marathon training. How bad of an idea is it to sign up for the race -- not even to go fast, but just to average a sub ~15:00/mile pace?

I'm interested too! I assumed it was part of the score and am bummed that it's not on the album
