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!
