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.

12 miles at normal paces during the first half and then pushed the pace more during the second half mixing in some fartleks at various speeds.  Legs were stiff during the first mile, but had good zip during the rest of the run.  I think eating a solid meal last night was key to the recovery.

Jogged and walked 2 miles with Claire.
