| | I felt pretty bad this morning...just kind of flat and dead in the legs! I am not sure if my body is used to two days of a medium distance, especially with pushing it kind of hard on the treadmill yesterday. But, the run was good, and I was able to do it all in under 8min. miles. It is a pretty hilly course that I chose to run. There was about 160ft change in elevation total. |

| | Was only able to get in three miles or so. Did more combatives this morning where we were actually able to fight each other. After we were done today I went to the gym and ran on the treadmill. The treadmill is so hard for me to run on...I don't know why. Any ideas out there? |

Today was a pretty easy run. We did it as a platoon and averaged about a 8:45 min. pace. The last .25+ was a release run and my GPS watch showed the fastest that I hit was a 4:45 pace, but obviously that was only maintained for a few seconds. It was nice to get a bit of a sprint in there at the end and get a decent distance in as a platoon.

| | The mileage was actually doing land navigation/orienteering...wow it was a smoker. I think the heat index was close to 100 degrees. There were so many people falling out that were heat casualties...it was bad! |

| | More land nav today. We had five hours to get 7 of 9 points. I can't believe that I covered over 12 miles this morning...my legs certainly can, but goodness. The last two days have been rough! |

| | For PT we focussed on abs. Then we did a beep test again and got in just about a mile. |

This morning we did a little run in uniform and boots down to the Obstacle course. We averaged just shy of 9 min pace. In the afternoon I went to the gym and ran 5 miles on the treadmill. I ended up doing it in 36:11. I started off pretty slow as a warm up and just increased the speed as I went. I finished the last two miles in about 12:52. That was nice to be able to max a PT test run with the final two miles of a 5 mile run. I felt good today, that was refreshing!

| | Nice run this morning for PT. We ran about a mile at about 7:30 pace then did some stairs around a little stadium, then ran back about .75 miles at a 7:00 pace. Then we did buddy carries for a little while and finished with a nice sprint up a little hill. After work, I went to the gym and did the other 3.8 on a treadmill. The treadmill is getting a little easier and easier to run on, but I can't imagine doing any more than five miles on it...it would kill me! |

| | Did 5.5 miles this morning with the whole company at a 8:30 average. We got going really fast the first half, but then slowed down the second half because people were falling out. In the afternoon I went to the gym and ran two miles as a warm up and lifted. All in all it was a great Friday! |

| | Today was a good run on the treadmill after work. I was hoping to do 6, but the treadmill is still rough for me! I get so impatient looking at the numbers...I can't wait for the heat to start going away here in Georgia. |

| | My IT band started hurting today...I haven't had that problem in almost two years. I don't know where that popped up from. Anyway, I wasn't able to run as far as the rest of the platoon. Hopefully this doesn't continue! |

| | First ruck march in the new boots and they were great! I love these boots. On an unforunate note, one of my peers just fell over during the ruck and ended up having a 107.7 degree core body temperature. We visited him in the hospital today and he is doing much better, but it was kind of scary there for a moment! MAKE SURE YOU HYDRATE when you are doing things. |

| | Hit it on the treadmill this afternoon. It felt good and I finished in 37:20 for 5 miles. Not my best, but not bad. |
