First two miles out on the trail.  Mile out and mile back.

Out - 11:34.56  Back - 10:47.57 = 22:22.13

Very weird.  I'd expect my first mile to be faster because of all the downhills on the way out.  It probably is that way because I need to warm up.

Third mile done at 155 beats per minute.  That pace was too slow and I felt it.  Increase speed next time by 5 to 160 bpm and see what that is like.  Goal is to slowly work up to 170 bpm.

Four mile light ruck.  The humidity made it seem harder than it really was but was a good eye opener.  Not as fast as I thought I was.  Mile times:

Out - 18:20.32, 18:07.05

Back - 18:55.71, 19:11.67 = 1 hr 14:34

10 minutes of jogging to warm up.  Eight reps of 60/120s.  With the ground a little more level it was a little easier mentally but still hard physically.  Feel as if I'm not quite up to true running speed.  It's like running with a weight on your back except there isn't one.
