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.

Legs felt recovered so ran a bit faster with all miles in the mid 7s pace.

Easy paced run over the lunch hour. Breaking in the legs after changing my weight training program this week to fewer reps and much heavier weight.

Lounged around with my morning coffee and then got out the door around 9am. Nice sunny day but windy. Pace was all over averaging out to 8mpm. Have some hot foot or neuroma going on in my left foot. Comes and goes after 10 miles.
