The guy who invented modern jogging died of a heart attack.  He sweated out all his potassium or something from too much jogging and had the heart attack.

Death
Fixx died on July 20, 1984, at age 52 of a heart attack, during his daily run on Vermont Route 15 in Hardwick.[1] The autopsy, conducted by Vermont's chief medical examiner, Dr. Eleanor McQuillen, revealed that atherosclerosis had blocked one coronary artery 95%, a second 85%, and a third 70%.[4][5]

In 1986, exercise physiologist Kenneth Cooper published an inventory of the risk factors that might have contributed to Fixx's death.[6] Granted access to his medical records and autopsy, and after interviewing his friends and family, Cooper concluded that Fixx was genetically predisposed—his father died of a heart attack at 43 after a previous one at 35,[7] and Fixx himself had a congenitally enlarged heart—and had an unhealthy life: Fixx was a heavy smoker before beginning running at age 36, had a stressful occupation, had undergone a second divorce, and gained weight up to 214 lb (97 kg).[8] Medical opinion continues to uphold the link between moderate exercise and longevity.

Yeah, but your wife might not be able to afford the bigger coffin for your fat carcass and you'd have to have one of those 'green' funerals' where they dump you in the bog and let you rot away  >:D

Used to use Debenhams for shirts. Alas, all their stores are gone now. Got a couple of XXXLs in Dunnes recently which are of reasonable quality, not up to Debenhams standard but wearable. Can't remember what they cost but it's unusual to find anything bigger than dwarf in clearance lines in any of the (online) stores, the exception being that one time in Debenhams in Newry... the Christmas before the store closed forever... I'm sure I mentioned it before but I brought a pair of shoes and several shirts to the counter and was truely shocked at how little money the attendent asked for, had to get him to double and triple check it... virtually (in the real world) giving the stuff away they were! Must have a look at that one Horse put up although I dislike buying online. There can be significant differences in quality even within the same brands in my (mostly Debenhams) experience... much better to get in front of the cloth IMO.

Have a peep at Ebay, I set up this xxxl category fer you;
https://www.ebay.ie/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=mens+shirts+xxxl&_sacat=0&_sop=15&rt=nc&LH_ItemCondition=3000

I usually dodge the UK ones with their poxy brexit import charges, you can set an option on the left hand side to not show certain areas of sale if you wish. I usually only use European union.
