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. |

| Morning run, went to cover band concert for Rush last night, so was thinking about my old friend I lost this year while Rush tunes danced in my head. I'll admit it, I cried.

Had a new pacemaker implant procedure done yesterday. Suppose to take it easy for a week but feeling really good. Doc said heart is structurally sound and only has the pesky sick sinus issue. So he says I’m free to race again which I have been fearful of for some time. So let’s see what’s cooking in 2024.
