Today was "Speed" day. Rounded up a few other people who said they wanted to train with me. They didn’t look as happy as I looked at the being of speed day. We did 6 x 800, with a 400 meter jog in between each. As we were jogging during our warming up, another unit was about to conduct their running portion of the PT test on the track. The Soldiers were stretching and lining up at the start. I couldn’t resist and I jumped in the starting line. I took off when the NCOIC said go and there went my training pace out the window. I was deciding if I was going to do mile repeats instead, but at the last second didn't. But my first 2 x 800's were pretty fast and it was fun.
