oosh, how did that feel? Big jump up in milage!

I've done a lot of distance running and the recomended increase is like 10% a week of your longest distance. Every 3rd week, dial it back down to help muscles rebuild/recover. Just be careful! Train smart and avoid injury!

Sounds like you are working hard!

I am trying to find info on the airforce special tactics squadrons. I found some interesting articles on what they do and it sounds pretty cool. You ever hear about them JJ?

I talked to an airforce recruiter and to a practice asvab. I did well on the practice test and he liked my experience and expertise. And he said it was awesome that I would be a great fit for sere, CCT, or pj but my vision won't let me do most of the jobs I want. I got some info and will be looking some stuff up.

Don't overlook the Coast Guard.

I have thought about it but have a hard time with the thought of being on a ship all the time.
