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.

total running time 64:36... exactly the same as last week.  splits:  9:08, 8:59, 9:10, 9:01, 9:31, 9:29, 9:17.  last 3 miles were tough but that was because of the early pace which I didn't realize due to it being dark and me not running with my headlamp.
