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.

I don't usually count hiks as running miles but we hiked for 2 miles at or above 9,000 feet so I thought I could count this!

total time 69:15.  plan was to take it easy.

splits 10:17, 10:00, 9:50, 9:41, 9:41, 10:00, 9:47.  this felt easy through 4.  I was struggling at 5 which is why I slowed it down.  the last mile I alternated a bit faster and a bit slower each eighth of a mile since I was struggling.

goal is 1,000 miles by the end of the year.  I will ahve to pick it up to make that.
