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 time 37:08  I did 2 minutes hard (simulating 400 meters)- after the first one I ran active recovery for 2 minutes.  After that I decided to to active recovery for 3 minutes.  I did a total of 7 2 minutes hard.  splits 9:10, 9:06, 9:12, 9:40.

afterwards I did the plyometrics suggested in the November Runner's World.  I am so out of shape!  I was only able to do 1 set.  I suspect that I will be very sore.
