| Member Since: Aug 10, 2008 Gender: Male Goal Type: Other 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. |

AM: Slow recovery 6 mi (8:44 avg). Lower left hamstring still bites once and a while, but doesn't get any worse unless I speed up. Will take it easy this week and drop the speed work that was scheduled.
PM: Slow recovery 4 mi (8:36 avg). | | Add Comment |

AM: Slow to Easy 8 mi (8:11 avg). I had no pain issues in the injury area, but could tell that part of my leg was a little gimpy so I cut the run short. Legs were a little dead in general because of yesterday's strength training. I might try a run later tonight depending how it feels throughout the day.
PM: Slow 3.5 mi on a full stomach of food and wine. Classic case of what is called "runner sabotage", which is knowing what you should not do, but doing it anyway in order to have an excuse for a bad run. Pathetic run, but I'll count it since it was longer than 30 min. | | Add Comment |

| PM: EP 1 mi, MP 5 mi, and EP 2.7 mi (7:21 avg, 125 HR avg). Temps in upper 70s, sunny, and windy. Injury feeling much better. I continue to be careful so another one doesn't pop up due to over compensation. | | Comments(3) |

| Easy 2 mi, PMP + 10 sec. 12 mi (7:01 avg, 131 HR avg), and Easy 4 mi (7:14 avg overall). Ate food before and during. Temp was in upper 50s and humid. Heart rate was well under control, but injury was nagging again. Of course I probably pushed it too far. I'll have to see how it feels on Monday. Feels like my aerobic capacity is there, but legs are not keeping up and breaking down. | | Comments(2) |
