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.

Busy day of meetings and too cold to run outside (-4 F) so I hit the mill early and late for 13 mi total. Awesome fitness facilities at this hotel.  I'm staying at Marriott more often.

Actually saw a couple hearty souls running outside today.  I really like Boston.

Legs felt lively this morning.  Still on the mill due to snow, dark, and cold.  YUCK!

First longish run in a while.  Finally ran outside again, but there is still some snow to deal with in some places. Pace was a better than I would have expected given all the running I've been doing on the TM.  Done in 2:05 (8:20 avg).  Hope to get closer to 70 miles next week.
