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.

4.75 mi - Morning run.  Got up late so didn't have time to go further.

4.5 mi - Lunch hour on the treadmill due to heat.  HR didn't increase like it should so took a short break at 2 mi and restarted slowly using deep breathing to get it going.  Finished fast.
