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.

Food borne illness. No run today unless I count sprints to the bathroom.

I was feeling decent so went out for a slow jog this morning, but quickly had a code brown alert forcing me to turn around and race home to make it to the bathroom.  Close call!

Jogged the whole way and focused on total time, not miles. Not a great week, but that's the way it goes. Body weight was post run.
