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.

I decided to mix things up a bit since I haven't ran the past two days due to long work days.  Started with a progression run to a brisk pace for 7 mi then went to MP for 2 mi and finished off at a brisk pace for 3 mi (7:37 avg overall).  I might try to run another 5 mi tonight.

REST, went to MN vs. IA football game.  The Hawkeyes gave the Gophers an old fashion drubbing.  Awesome.
