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.

afternoon run.  total run time 18:37.  splits 9:26, 9:11.  average heart rate 120

morning run.  7 miles.  Jeff wanted me to do 6 by 0.5 miles at around 9 minute pace.  I warmed up for 1 miles and then I had 0.2 miles recovery in between (pace between 9:45 and 10 min).  total time 64:37.  splits 9:24, 8:55(definitely discovered that part of this was too fast), 9:16, 9:11, 9:05, 9:30, 9:16.  My heart rate seems a bit higher this week?  not sure.  need to go to garmin connect and analyze.  I spent 30 minutes stretching last night.  My right groin and thigh seem to be doing better.  average heart rate for the entire run was 128.

afternoon run 83 degrees.  2 miles 18:26.  splits 9:20, 9:06.  average heart rate 119

long run plan today... 2 x 3 miles plus easy run.  1 segment early in the run and another segment late in the run.  I did them mile 2-4 and then 13-15.  goal was 9 min pace for those runs and 9:25 for the other times. 

How I did:  total time 2:26:27.  plits 9:24, 8:51, 9:01, 8:57, 9:23, 9:21, 9:19, 9:16, 9:18, 9:11, 9:14, 9:15, 9:01, 8:49, 8:59, 9:07.  The first 3 miles segment I was trying to keep the heart rate at 126.  Then I was trying to keep it at 121.  I was pretty successful at 121 but I really settled into a groove and the miles were faster than I had planned.  the second faster segment I had to stay around 129-130 in order to get the pace.  The last mile I ran most of it at 9:20 pace.  but I picked up the pace the last 90 seconds.

average heart rate for the entire run was 124.  average pace 9:09 (right on pcae for 4 hours).
