Today's run felt much better. On the treadmill at the Gym with a hill workout. My legs are so sore from lifting legs  on Saturday; squats are killer! I think my AP was something like 8:35, but for the last two miles or so I was right around 8:00 and for the last mile about 7:46. It took me a minute to get the lactic acid moving and be able to run comfortably, but after about 5 minutes I felt pretty good.

After, I lifted back and biceps.

Today's run was farther than I initially thought it would be, but I felt really good. I think I have kicked the rust off and can start building again. My legs are still sore from Saturday's lifting session, but it is much better.

Today did a treadmill run and less mileage because of yesterday. Still trying to "ease" back into it. I averaged an 8:15 for the run. I was picking up the pace as the run went on and finished running at a 7:13 for the last .5mile.

Today was ruck march day. I am going to start doing this to get ready for the assessment course I will be attending. I averaged a 14:43 which is :17 under the Army standard. I didn't run at all, so it was pretty good. My ruck sack probably weighed in excess of 50lbs. so my calorie count is going to be off.

Had a nice run today and felt comfortable. I ran around the track for the whole thing which was not very enjoyable, but it got the job done for the day.
