Today was a good run on the treadmill after work. I was hoping to do 6, but the treadmill is still rough for me! I get so impatient looking at the numbers...I can't wait for the heat to start going away here in Georgia.

My IT band started hurting today...I haven't had that problem in almost two years. I don't know where that popped up from. Anyway, I wasn't able to run as far as the rest of the platoon. Hopefully this doesn't continue!

First ruck march in the new boots and they were great! I love these boots. On an unforunate note, one of my peers just fell over during the ruck and ended up having a 107.7 degree core body temperature. We visited him in the hospital today and he is doing much better, but it was kind of scary there for a moment! MAKE SURE YOU HYDRATE when you are doing things.
