George Davies was a passionate marathon runner, but after one training session he was left feeling lucky to be alive.
Twenty years ago, George was out with a group of fellow athletes on a training run before suddenly collapsing amid a heart attack. Doctors saved his life that day, discovering he had a ventricular tachycardia (VT), which is an abnormal heart rhythm.
“I was fit and thought I was incredibly healthy at the time. If someone had told me that you could die from a heart problem, by doing exercise that you loved – I’d have been very surprised. I never expected a heart attack to happen to me," George explained.
