Peloton’s Jessie Malone is running a marathon to mark one year since her Apple Watch saved her life by revealing a heart condition she was completely unaware she had.
“It was saying you need to seek medical attention immediately,” she told Today.com, . “It was red and vibrating. I was like, ‘Oh my God.'”
Her heart rate while she was cycling had risen to 160 beats per minute, but she says she hadn’t felt anything other than a little nausea. Following her Apple Watch “blaring that my resting heart rate was elevated and also that I had gone into Afib,” she says she dumped the electric bike and went to an emergency room.
