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.

Out of town for a wedding.  Decided to give my legs a couple days off in order to catch up.  The additional exercises I did this week really pointed out some weakness in my quads so I plan to keep on working on that area.  Only doing a couple sets, high reps, and light weights.  Single leg squats and lunges are the primary focus in addition to my ab cycle.
