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.

65:06 total running time.  It was hot enough that I struggled at the end.  I ran the GV trail in 6:31 starting at about 38:45 into the run.  It was 70 degrees when I finished the run.  average HR 152 with max HR of 163.

30 ext.  I intended to do pushups ansd situps but I slipped and fell and strained (possibly tore) my right triceps this morning.  I was walking down the stairs. 

I still ran jsut without doing the situps and pushups.

total running time 43:22.  6 minutes warm up and almost 10 minutes cool down.   tempo run.  5600 meters (7:56, 7:55, 7:53, 3:46)

got a physiology lesson.  I went running shortly after I fell.  My heart rate shot up into the 160's to 180's while I was first running.  I think I had a "fight or flight" response to my fall as my arm hurt quite a bit.  The heart rate actaully then settled into the 150's after the first 4 or 5 minutes of the tempo run.  Thus...average HR 154 but max HR 186.

ran Friday so that I could drive most of the day Saturday without the fatigue.  I did one mile in the middle at 8:09.  Again I was really tired the last 15-20 minutes.  I think it was the altitude.
