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: Another slow and easy 6.5 mi. Weather was perfect. Ball of my right foot was bothersome during the last mile. Not sure what the scoop is there.

PM: Ran 6.5 mi picking up the pace the second half. Ball of right foot was less of an issue the faster I ran. Planning a long run tomorrow, but with this foot thing I might need to cut it short.

Busy tomorrow and on the weekend so I did a long run today. Left the house and ran an easy 25 miles point to point (8:00-9:00 pace). I called my wife near the end and had her come and pick me up out on the bike path in the country. I had a food stop at 20 miles. Next time I hope to make this run at least 30 miles
