This morning I woke up early and couldn't fall back asleep so I went out for a run and got 7 miles in before PT. My average pace was a 7:30, a bit slower than I would like. I was hurting the last two miles. Running our here is a little bit more hilly than what I have been running back in Utah, rolling hills that is. Then for PT today we did two miles but in intervals. It was a crossfit workout so we did a bunch of core stuff and then did laps around the track. It was good. I was glad I had a good workout before PT!

Not much of a run today, but we did it in our Interceptor Body Armor (IBA). Those are flack vests with heavy plates put in them to withstand bullet shots. They were heavy to run with and a bit uncomfortable. Our average pace was a 10:37. At the end we broke off and ran on our own for the last 1/8th of a mile up a hill and back to the PT area. I took off and was first to finish and at some point hit a 4:44 pace (according to the GPS). It was good to get some time for a fast portion of the run.

Didn't go to bed until like 2:30am because of zeroing our PEC-15s to get ready for a night fire. So we didn't get up and do PT in the morning but had an hour to do PT later. I ran on the treadmill and started slow and got progressively faster. I went 8:20   7:30   6:45   6:10. It was nice to finish those last two miles sub-13:00 Hopefully we'll try and keep the mileage up.

Didn't go to bed until 4:00am so there was no PT and no time to workout... :(

Got home much earlier 11:45pm but was so exhausted from this week that I didn't get up early and we didn't have PT at all. Tomorrow I'll run somemore!

A good little run with my wife and my son. We pushed him in our little running stroller.
