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.

after a 4 minute warm-up I went steady but hard.  I let up with about 2 minutes to go.  total running time was 34:33.  I signed Jeff and I up for the Mesa Mi amigos Turkey trot.  Initially he said he didn't want to run a 10K but then realized it was almost 3 weeks after his marathon.  This will be the first time I have raced a 10K since I tore my ACL a long time ago.  I'll be lucky if I can break 50 minutes.  Jeff will likely beat me by15-20 minutes.

total time 68:20.  I feel I am getting stronger.  I turned around at 34 minutes.  I tried to keep up the pace but couldn't quite do it.  The one segment that I am pretty sure on the distance I ran a mile in 8:29 on the way out and then 8:31 on the way back.  I am hoping to run the 10 K at around 8:15 pace.  We'll see what happens in a month!
