| | Today was a smoker! We were in full uniform plus body armor and did this 6 mile run through the woods and up and down muddy hills. We were completely covered in mud due to rain the day before. I think our first mile was something like 6:15 wearing boots and all this gear...goodness it was rough. But all in all it was good and I kept up near the front the whole time. |

| | Today was a recovery run. We averaged just a little over 8:15 pace. Our bodies were needing it and it felt great. |

Today we did the RPAT (Ranger Physical Assessment Test). Wow, I have never done this before and it was a challenge. You start off in full unifom (ACUs, boots, helmet, and body armor) and run two miles. Then you climb a 20 foot rope once, drag a skedco (litter) with 185lbs for 100 meters, then climb a 20 foot caving latter, then a 200m sprint (jog really), and then get over and 8 foot wall. If all of that wasn't enough, you finish with a final mile run. My time was 27:16 which was the second fastest in our class. That was great PT, but it was sure a smoker. |

First run back in Italy. Felt pretty good. Toward the end of the run my knee started to get sore. I think part of it was from how cold it is here right now. Everything else felt great though and it is good to be back.

Back from Istanbul and a few days off. It was a pretty slow run with a few of the guys in Headquarters. I tried to push them, but they aren't in the greatest of shape.

Today I did some interval training and ended up cutting it a little short. I think I am coming down with something. I woke up this morning feeling kind of sick and achy. My initial plan was to hit 2x400m in 1:30 or less, then 2:x1600m in 6:05 or less, and finally finish off with 2x400m again 1:30 or less. I wanted to hit negative splits on my 400m and my second mile faster than the first. I ended up cutting out the second 1600m, but I did get all my 400m times faster and my 1600 was 6:10. It was slower than I wanted, but it was really cold and I am really not feeling well.
Hopefully the run will flush out all the bad.
