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 and life.

Perfect weather for a long run on a trail.  Sunny and 50 dg.  Depletion run and carried water only.   Did a short fartlek every mile during the last 7 miles.  Thankfully the chest/rib cage injury is much better compared to last weekend.  A personal record for mileage this week.

Great run and a great week of running! You have really been nailing the miles the last few weeks. You should be really strong heading to Boston.
