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.

total time 41:03.  after half mile warm-up I did fartleks one per each half mile. f artlek was for around45 seconds and was about 85% max effort.  the half mile was a bit of a guess and may have been a bit short.  splits 9:21, 8:56, 4:18, 9:16, 9:12

ovedrnight resting heart rate 48.  night before was 47.  

plan was start slow but pick up the pace gradually after about 4 minutes then a tempo run.  total time 40:59.  splits 9:26, 9:00, 4:29, 9:00, 9:04.

I felt pretty good.  a little sore at the beginning but I feel pretty good after this run.

61 degrees at the start of my run.  awesome!!  total time 1 hour 55 minutes and 3 seconds.  Started deliberately slow... splits were surprising to me once I started to pick it up.  10:07, 9:51, 10:03, 10:00, 9:56, 10:04 (a little late turning around?), 9:45, 9:35, 9:05, 9:07, 8:43, 8:49.  I had a non-caffeinated energy gel prior to starting the run and then a caffeinated gel at 45 minutes and at 1 hour 30 minutes.  turn around at 60 min flat with return at 55:03.  I am sore but pretty excited about how this run went.

rested for about 40 minutes and then rode my bike at a moderate pace for 32 minutes.
