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.

AM: 6.4 miles, general tired feeling most of the way and didn't feel much better after 30 minutes like I have been recently. Legs were in good shape.

LH: 4.0 sloooow miles during lunch and one whole set of push-ups! The exercise not the orange flavored treat.

Remember Bill Murray in Stripes trying to do 10 push-ups?

Oh yeah. I use to spend a lot of time in the gym for powerlifting. Now can hardly stand it. Funny.
