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.

8.6 mi morning + 6.5 mi lunch, all easy pace. Just staying comfortable as possible over the next several weeks as I increase volume. Weighing myself same time everyday.

This running thing would be much easier if I didn't have a full time job, but then there is this money thing.

Money gets in the way of...everything. So many mornings I'm thinking the same thought as I trudge along. But then I think back to when my wife and I had our first child and I was laid off 5 months later... Rough! It's a good problem, having to balance work and running. :-)

Right on, you are correct. Being unemployed is a drag. Now if we win the lottery.....then we are on to something.
