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.

warm-up 1.03 miles in 9:52.

race was against myself splits 7:39, 7:57.5, 8:14.9, 0:56= 24.47.4 for 3.11 miles  kinda wish I would have seen what I could do going out about 8:00 first mile... would I have slowed like I did?  this was still about a 7:58 pace which is better than I thought I could do.

cool down 10:38.7

after almost 48  hours of traveling I took a 3 hour nap and then tried a long run.  It was 3:45 in the afternoon and about 18 degrees warmer than my last run.  I wasn't trying to push at all and the first 4 miles felt easy but then I struggled.

total time 74:02.  9:16, 9:13, 9:05, 9:01, 9:21, 9:40, 10:02, 8:24
