Got back from Slovenia today. We had a good trip! My running schedule worked out perfect for last week as I was able to take off both Saturday and Sunday. We drove back today, about 3.5 hours, so it was nice to get out tonight and go for a run. I think because I have had some good rest days my body was feeling good and my run was much faster today than normal.

I wanted to do a little shorter today, but my Company Commander found me again...I don't like running with him very much. Oh well. It was slower because he is, and we did some hills. The bad thing about running with your boss is you can't really run faster than him. I just want to smoke him sometime though so he will stop running with me, maybe it will work, next time.

Another good run today, not as slow as yesterday, but not as fast as Monday. I enjoy running on the side/country roads of Italy. The country can be very beautiful!

Altered the run today a little. Did a small tempo run in the middle. Warmed up a mile, then did a latter of equal on/rest of 1-2-3-3-2-1min tempos.

Did the same route today, however it was just a slow constant run. My legs were feeling pretty sore from the intervals yesterday. I think that is a good thing though!
