Took a few days off due to some Airborne Operations. The timelines are crazy, we have a 4 hour bus ride to Ivano Air Field. We are staying outside of L'viv, Ukraine. The jumps have been great though. Ukrainians jump real weird!

First 5 miler. I was feeling pretty tired at the end, more muscular fatigue than anything else.

Finally back in Italy. Customs is ridiculous, I am surprised we made it out of Ukraine...even though we waited on the tar mack for 8 hours.

Today I finally was able to run in the morning before breakfast. It felt fast, and it was, but it was hard to slow myself, so I just went with it.

Today was a slower recovery run (funny having to say recovery after a 7:11 pace from yesterday). It felt good and I felt stronger than the five miler earlier this week. Hopefully I am getting stronger.

8:50   8:13   8:20   8:28 = 8:26 AP at 153BPM
