Personal:

I retired from the Army after 26 years of service in 2010.  I moved home to Arizona.  My wife and I are empty nesters.  In 2016 I had stents placed in my heart after discovering coronary artery disease.  Since early 2016 I have lost 30 lbs and got in much better shape.  August 2017 I retired again. We served a mission to Mexico from October 2017 until April 2019.

8.000.000.00

total time 72:19.  72 degrees at 4:46 am when I started my run.  I took my hydration belt with me and had 11 oz of water during the run. the plan was to run up-tempo for 2 minutes "on the 5's" (at 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 25 minutes, etc). The first 5 minutes were warm-up and then 2 minutes were run at about 8:10 pace except for the 5th and the 6th (at 45 and 55 minutes) were run at about 7:50 pace.  splits 9:09, 8:57, 8:59, 9:02 (only had about 1 minutes of up tempo during this mile), 9:00 (only had about 1 minutes of up tempo during this mile), 9:06, 8:59, 9:08.  I felt good about this run.

13.000.000.00

total time 2:04:09.  I took it easy yesterday expressly to see what I could do today.  It was supposed to be 74 at the start of the run but I forgot to check.  10 minutes after I finished it was 78 degrees outside.

Plan:  9:20- 9:10- 8:45- 9:20- 9:15- 8:45- 9:20- 9:20- 8:45- 9:25- 9:25- 8:45- then whatever 

Acutal:

          9:20- 9:04- 8:43- 9:16- 9:14- 8:43- 9:18- 9:14- 8:43- 9:38- 11:28- 10:19- 11:08

the 11:28 included about a minute of walking.  Stuck with the plan through 9 miles... the heat and the pace got to me.  Weight before the run 155; weight after the run 149.6. I drank about 22 oz of water during the run. average HR 127.  I think this run will help when I am keeping it more steady and it is cooler.
