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:

None, just regular strength and aerobic conditioning.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Maybe complete some races again.

Personal:

Started runnning more regularly in 2005 after years of mostly strength training.  I have cut back on endurance training since developing heart and thyroid issues over the years.  Reintroduced strength training and walking sessions for a more balanced approach to health.

7 miles before work on tired legs (9:42/mi).  Legs were tired from strength training a couple days ago and my sense of exertion has increased since quitting my anti-d med.  Will take some time getting use to the feelings again.

11.5 miles in the morning (8:49/mi).  I haven't felt this good on a run in a very long time.  Like years.  Probably related to stopping Lex. Feeling a bit more determined and getting a "runner's high" again.

8 miles in the morning before church (8:48/mi).  I can't believe how good running feels now.  It has to be related to me stopping my medication.

Strength training and swimming with the kids later in the day.  Tired!

5.7 miles on a hot humid morning post blood donation the day before = SLUG FEST!  Had to walk some sections.  Brutal.  Going to eat and drink next couple of days and that's about it.
