Personal:

I used to run competitively, and maybe I will do so again someday.  Right now I am primarily running to try and get in better shape, and to maintain both physical and emotional health, but also for the simple joy that comes when I run.

I am also the proud daddy of five little ones.  I love the opportunity that I have to be a daddy, and my challenge is to balance my family responsibilities with work and running.

I ran 9 miles in 1:07:08 with an average HR of 155.  My HR was climbing steadily throughout the run, and got as high as 174 near the end (I had to speed up for about 15 seconds to get across the street before the light changed).  My average HR over the last 3 miles was 160.

I had an appointment with the cardiologist today.  We ended up setting up an appointment to perform a stress echo on Monday.  She also told me that she could hear a slight murmur when she listened to my heart.
