Personal:

I retired from the Army after 26 years of service in 2010.  I moved home to Arizona.  My wife and I are empty nesters.  In 2016 I had stents placed in my heart after discovering coronary artery disease.  Since early 2016 I have lost 30 lbs and got in much better shape.  August 2017 I retired again. We served a mission to Mexico from October 2017 until April 2019.

63:37 total running time.  surprised myself as I didn't sleep well due to the mucinex D.  maybe the phenylephrine enhanced my performance? splits 9:19, 9:03, 9:18, 9:07, 8:48, 8:54, 9:08.  the last mile really hurt.

What a difference a week makes.  only 6 hours sleep.  on day 4 of antibiotc treatment for a sinus infection.  Didn't feel any wind at my back during the first half of the run.  On the way back there was a steady wind in my face the whole way.  The wheels came off for me after 5 miles.  total time 65:45.  splits 9:12, 8:59, 9:08, 9:14, 9:06, 10:05, and 10:01.

total time 27:39.  Pretty slow but working on less than 5 hours sleep and dodging water puddles and slippery ground contributed.  splits: 9:18, 9:09, 9:12.

I intended to run 7 but knew pretty quickly that I should plan on turning around at 6.  I slept 7 hours but I still don't feel that well.  The antibiotic that I am on (seocond one) is making me feel a bit queazy.  total time 56:39.  splits 9:05 (felt fine but deliberately slowed down as I knew it wouldn't last), 9:18, 9:14, 9:14, 9:25, 10:23.  frustrating but not really training for anything either.

intended to run 5 but cut it short as my calf was really tight.  I slowed a lot.  I had 2 calf cramps in the night.  not sure what I am doing wrong.   total running time 44:14.  splits 9:26, 9:07, 9:14, 9:33, and 6:54.  I had wind in my face on the way back but the biggest deal was my left calf which started to really be sore around 34 minutes into the run.
