# Sleep — 2026-07-29
**8h 3min** · 00:31→08:35 · REM: 11% · Deep: 31% · HRV: **140ms** 🟢 · Resting HR: 51 bpm · Score: 87/100
> HRV at 140ms is a **new all-time high** — 5ms above the previous peaks (135ms on Jul 5 and Jul 27), and the first time it's broken above your personal range of 76-134ms. Resting HR at 51 bpm is in the lower half of your range. Deep sleep at 31% (2h 30min) is solid, deep continuity at 73 points (normal). Light sleep elevated at 58% (slightly above the 55% reference), REM suppressed at 11% (52 min) — the REM suppression is consistent with being a bit high before bed (same pattern as Jul 20: 37% deep, 11% REM on heavy weed). Only 1 awakening. Breathing quality at 98 points is excellent, SpO2 at 98%.

> The paradox: objectively the best recovery metrics in your entire run history (despite being high!), but subjectively you felt heavy and groggy — "barely woke up." The late bedtime (00:31) pushed the sleep window later, and waking at 08:35 after 8 hours likely pulled you out of a deep or REM cycle. Sleep inertia — the body recovered well but the brain wasn't ready to be awake yet.

> Interesting that "a bit high" still boosted HRV to 140ms while suppressing REM. Jul 20 ("really high") gave 107ms HRV with 37% deep sleep. Tonight: lighter dose → same REM suppression but massively better HRV. The dose-response relationship here is notable — a little seems to help parasympathetic recovery, a lot tanks it.
