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.

Returning back to the blog after a long break.  Really miserable weather here during the winter.  Finally get to run outside more often.  Today's weather was fantastic so I trotted out 10 miles.  I'm struggling with a lot of things so I'm returning back to running more often to build my self confidence and enrich my life.  Rebuilding for now.

Thanks Jeff. I missed blog and reading your updates as well. Boy, sure wish I was heading to Boston. I know I'd be in great shape right about now. Maybe next year, eh?
