New shoe secod try


Can't find the Sacunay's around here so I will have ot wait until either a trip to Colorado or I order a pair and hope it is the right size. Try number one got me the Nike Mojo 7's, I need stability support and ended up with a nice feeling neutral so I tried ot run in them, got 2 miles and had hot spots and starting to get blisters I returned them for these the Asics GT2150.
Now a quick update I am just finishing BRM which is middle of week 4 and the hours suck and the runs are worse. typically there are 4 groups seperated by run time but by the time we end there is like 6 groups and the B group hasn't even made it out of the 8 min mile pace yet.
I am starting to enjoy this as I believe my PLT is going to receive the high BRM ( highest qualifying score ) and Marksmanship ( most qualified on a decided day ) about 30-40 of my 60 person PLT has qualified with 2 Experts ok now I am off to the gym

2 in 1 month

Ok it is a new record 2 post in 1 month.

Today was long and boring except when smoking joe that is always fun. But i had to listen to some Major talk about how to properly run and how you need to use the middle of your foot and never to push off because you are defeating the purpose and when you are running it should look like you are falling forward, none of witch I have ever heard of or tried. I just figured run using the balls of your feet and maybe roll from inside to outside if need be but mainly use the balls of the feet and to run faster reduce the time your feet touch the ground. Am I wrong or is there something i am missing here....

New Shoes




The first shoe is the Saucony Pro Grid Hurricane 11, I checked on this brand because Brownie recommended them to me. I have read that they are narrow.

The next pair is the Nike Structure Triax 13 the NEW in this series but I read that Nike has messed up on these new ones.

The last pair is the Nike Structure Triax 12. These are the ones I got from the Colorado Running Company and I enjoy them but haven't been able to find my size here yet. Any suggestions on what to get?

First of the New Year

So here I am sitting here in Lawton OK. Finally got into my unit so far everyone seems rude but that could be because I am the new guy oh well. I am on my Permissive TDY right now and will be when my unit picks up on Tues. NOTE: This will be the first class as a female integrated BCT at my new Unit. So I can get you all updated on my going on's starting with week 2 of the 10 week basic training. I am going to strive to update this thing at least every few days this year. This way Brownie can delete his normal message of "You finally updated this thing" By the way Good luck on getting into Hardrock again this year. The only down fall I have seen here so far is they believe they are better than the other 2 BCT units here and demand that all NCO's go to monthly, quarterly boards, Drill Sergeant of the year competition and the Audie Murphy club board. I hate boards I just want to train these people and relax for my 2 years
