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.

First run in Costa Rica and what a beauty.  Loved the sun and heat.  Stopped to watch a triathlon taking place at our resort during the run.  They were stretched thin on volunteers so I helped guide runners on a turn once and while. Inspiring to watch the leaders screaming towards the finish.  Some serious competition participated.

Another earlier morning run before all of the activities and heat gear up.

Back home in IL again.  I miss the warmth already.  Good to be back and on a firm schedule though.

Some faster paces mixed in, but I don't recall how much.  It was cold and raining out so I did these on the TM.
