Running Accomplishments:

Marathon PR - 3:05 (3:06 at Boston)

Completed a dozen marathons and a handful of 50 mile ultras.

Short-Term Running Goals:

Consistent aerobic and strength training.

Christie Clinic Half Marathon 4/27/24

Long-Term Running Goals:

Sub 1:35 in half marathon.  Then might consider taking a shot at full marathon again.

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.

9 mi - Before work, nice morning.  Claire is still in hospital and Krista is spending nights there.

5 mi - During lunch. I had one of those moments where after running on the treadmill I found out it didn't rain as planned.

Fartleks and easy surges mixed in throughout.  Mowed the lawn before weights.  Now really tired.

Legs are feeling accumulated fatigue after yesterday so really slow paces on the schedule today.
