Personal:

I started more dedicated running and racing in my thirties.  Eventually I developed symptomatic bradycardia and SVT which required a cardiac pacemaker implant and a cardiac cath ablation.  It has taken a long time to get back to running consistently again.  Counting my blessings and trying to remain more balanced with fitness.

Thanks. Yes, I read your blog. Sounds like you were soaked like me. That's ok though, you ran 20 miles (at a very good pace) and you weren't injured. I keep drinking a lot of water as I estimated about a 6 lb loss.
