Running Accomplishments:

Marathon PR - 3:05 (3:06 at Boston)

Completed a dozen marathons and a handful of 50 mile ultras.

Short-Term Running Goals:

Consistent aerobic and strength training.

Christie Clinic Half Marathon 4/27/24

Long-Term Running Goals:

Sub 1:35 in half marathon.  Then might consider taking a shot at full marathon again.

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.

All easy even paced miles on the treadmill.  Second run was slow progression with fast last 5 minutes.  Just trying to build some more consistency.

Outside finally during lunch.  A mental victory because I really wanted to blow off the run due to a later start and growling stomach.

7 miles - Had a nice Monday 3:30am wake up by one of the kids.  Tossed and turned for about any hour and then gave up and hit the bricks.  Dark as a bat cave outside and cold.

4.6 miles - Mill time during lunch hour.
