Good run on Sept 11th. I wanted to get out, even though it was Sunday, as part of a commemorative run. Ran with a couple other of my Officer buddies. One of them was a very accomplished Cross-X runner in high school, running a 15:35 as a junior in 5k. He had some injuries his senior year and would have been able to walk on at Duke, but he decided to go to West Point instead...bad decision in his opinion, haha.

Anyway, he wanted to run faster today, but it killed me. I didn't sleep well last night and hadn't eaten much during the day, so I felt pretty weak.

Wow, today was a good run. I ran with my buddy again and we did a warm up 7mins then 5 min quick followed by 4 min cool down, the 4 min quick, followed by 3 min cool dow, etc. We finished with about a .5mile cool down. I was pretty consistant during the quick portions running at 6:10-35. Cool down was probably around 8:45ish pace.
