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: Treadmill progression run of 7 mi down to 7:10 pace @ 2.5% incline.

PM: Easy run of 7.3 mi over a hilly course. Temps are falling again and it was getting windy. I'm a little disappointed in this run because I ran this route faster 2 weeks ago and my legs continued to be sluggish on the hills. I had to slow down several times for black ice, but I still don't like the results this time around.

PM: Bone chilling cold outside so it was treadmill time again. Ran easy 3 mi then picked up the pace to MP 1 mi + TP 1 mi + 10K pace 1 mi then finished off with 1 mi easy. All done at 1-1.5% incline.

I'm out the rest of the week on a trip with the Mrs. I will update my mileage when I get back. Have a great week.
