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.
To mimic a long run I did the following brick workout: Spinning 20 min + TM: Easy 1mi, PMP 6 mi (6:49 avg) + Spinning 20 min + TM: PMP 3 mi (6:49 avg), Easy 3 mi. Water and sodium caps only because I was sweating like a pig. Probably kidding myself, but I still might run a marathon in 3 weeks. Won't be sending in the entry fee until the last minute!
