In a good week, I manage three or four visits to the gym. On each visit, I walk/run 3.1 miles (5k) and then spend 30 minutes strength training.

My current goal is getting back to my December 2024 condition and running 5k in under 36 minutes. It’s proving much harder than I expected. There was a two-month illness break, several medication changes, and a right knee injury that took months to resolve. I’m currently dealing with what appears to be aerobic deconditioning, and possibly statin-related muscle fatigue.

I’m now switching to a more structured run-walk program before maybe adjusting my CoQ10 supplement dosage.
