Day 3 of Dare Month. Today was a mock APFT. I wasn't going 100%, but I had the same (bad) time I had in January. While I ran two miles, Hilarie accomplished just over one in that time.

After running two miles, I jogged back up to my wife for her last mile on the track. While her time ended up being a "0" APFT score, it was her best pace so far and I'm confident she'll get a lot faster over this month. She's a good sport for doing this with me.

7 min treading water

30 burpies

Day 2 of Dare Month. Run with the wife on running trails around our house. Learning from yesterday, I ran with a light (24lb) backpack so I could get a bit of a workout. Might increase the weight on future runs. Hilarie kept up a shuffle for most of the run, and I used intersections and short hills as walking breaks while encouraging her to jog the rest of the time.

Day 1 of Dare Month. This is 30 days where I agreed to eat only organic food for my wife while she agreed to follow an exercise plan I made for her. The first event in my plan was a 3 mile Red Cross "Luck of the Volunteer" run/walk. I ran/walked with Hilarie for encouragement. As the race continued, short breaks to walk became longer ones and this accounts for the time--she is going from zero running after all. The pace was not a good one for me, but on future runs I'll increase the challenge for me by
1. wearing a pack
2. having our runs on tracks where we can go different distances
3. using treadmill/elliptical/bikes
4. micro out/back sprints interspersed in longer runs
