My six weeks at school at Fort Meade was great for my conditioning. During this time my workouts were just running. I had myself on a very healthy diet conisting of mostly steamed veggies, fruit and good carbs like whole wheat English muffins. I really learned to appreciate fresh vegetables during this time. I took a wok and a bamboo steamer along and just threw a little of everything in there. Onions, Broccoli, mushrooms you name it.
I also discovered the beautiful taste of fresh Almond Butter. Oh man, it's like peanut to the on 11!
I also got to do something I haven't done in a few years. Run with a group of people. It really does make all the difference in the world. I started out at the back of the pack of young officers and NCO's and at the end of the six weeks I was running with them. They were great motivator, I hate getting passed up! Close to the end of the class I was I would do well on my PT test that was coming up. I wasn't concerned with passing at this point. I wanted to kick it's ass.
