A good run with one of my squads around the track. We stayed on an outside lane and did an indian run, just trying to get the leg eased back in.

Today I paced one of my soldiers who is really struggling with his two mile time. When he first got to my platoon he ran in the 18:00 for two miles. Then a week ago he ran a 17:44 or so, and today I paced him and he finished (and passed the test) with a 15:32. That is still pretty poor, but he is making improvement.

I ran with Heather today and pushed the two boys in our "two-boy" running stroller. This run was more for her than anything and it was a lot of fun to be together as a family. We averaged a 7:40 pace for the run. We had a blast!
