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.

I elft the hosue at 5:15 AM.  It didn't matter.  The offical weather at 5 AM was 88 degrees with 70% humidity.  I ran 2 minute fartleks with 1 minute active recovery.  I did 7 of these while running an out and back.  The humidty really hit me about the 32 minute mark.  My routine markers were:

Out:  3:18, 4:40, 4:51 (started the fartleks at 13 minutes), 8:18 (2:08 during active recovery phase)

back: 8:47 (2:52 during active recovery), 4:52, 5:50, 3:55

once the heat over takes me the pace drops off dramatically.

ran in Nevada.  started with Jeff.  It was noticably cooler this morning but I was super sore.  The distances is a total guess.  i felt slow at first and turned around at 23:30.  I picked up the pace and arrived back at thes tart at 45 minutes however I didn't think I was poushing it enough to speed up by 2 minutes so I added a minute and called it 5 miles.

ran in provo.  The temp was in the low 60's and it was heaven.  I had two stretches in which I could time a mile...I ran 8:41 then 8:37 near the end.  the total run time was 43:20.  it may have been a bit more than 5 miles but I am not sure.

Back in Henderson.  it was relatviely cool this morning...probably low 80's.  I did 5-4-3-2-1-1 fartleks.  I started at 23 minutes and did the recovery AFTER the fartlek and 1 minute shorter than each fartlek until I was at the 1 minutes fartlek.  The distances is a guess based only on what pace I think I was running.  total running time 55:33.
