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.

8 + 2 mi - Morning and lunch combo.  A lot of interruptions in my running schedule these days.  Forced to do most activity in the early morning.  If it don't get done before 8am then it more than likely won't happen.

10 mi - Tried to push the pace more during last two miles.  My right arch continues to complain during these trips.

2 mi - Giving right foot/arch a break to catch up.  Did some cross training of sorts alternating steep walking and easy jogging on the TM.  Followed by strength training.
