Gruene Hall 10K

I ran laps at the track yesterday (Friday) before making the 3 1/2-hour drive to New Braunfels to run the Gruene Hall 10K this morning.  Had a rough day physically yesterday.  I'm not sure if it is the RA, the heart issue or the medications I am taking for both.  Of course, the weather was warm in New Braunfels this morning, but with low humidity.  This is the 9th straight year I have run this race.  I finished in 1:37:23 and was 4th of 4 in the 75-79 age group.  This must have been a PW (personal worst) for the 10K distance.  Here is my history for this race:

2019 - 1:37:23 (age 78)
2018 - 1:30:48
2017 - 1:26:13
2016 - 1:21:29
2015 - 1:21:31
2014 - 1:18:40
2013 - 1:22:42
2012 - 1:16:17
2011 - 1:16:38 (age 70)

Hope you get to feeling some better, Ken. I would imagine not knowing what is causing what could get a little scary.
God bless.
