PAX were advised to just jump in where the most guys were when they got to the exercises, or to skip the exercises entirely and just keep running.
When we stretch to a route that necessitates covering 4 miles, YHC gets worried about leaving PAX. We managed to stay together and Fishstix + Badlands picked up the 6 today making sure we all arrived back at COT resting on 4 miles. Bravo gentlemen!

Sometimes we have to choose the hard thing ourselves. Sometimes we have to choose to do the hard thing that life is handing us. If we skirt away from doing the what's difficult when needed, what worse thing will be waiting for us in the future?
