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

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

Short-Term Running Goals:

None, just regular aerobic and strength conditioning.

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.

Outside run followed by some strength training.  Covid struck the house so now everyone locked down and awaiting a possible turn.  Wonder if my flu shot will help at all.  I've read it might.

Easy run on a cold and gloomy day.  Two kids have now tested positive for Covid in the house.

Slow run.  Mentally draining.  Tired from poor sleep and dead legs from weights yesterday.
