When running experienced few heart flutters. getting seen by cardiologist. i have heard of conditions like hcm, arvd which cause death. is this likely?

Poss, not common: Some Fluttering when running is far more common with less serious prob than HCM & ARVD These entities are best recognized on Echocardiogram, & this will be done. Symptomatic HCM can be treated & if severe ess cured with diff approaches, ARVD is more complex. The ECG may be abn, but not necess, Echo more definitive. Other reasons for fluttering may need to be addressed.
