Running: Everyone’s favorite form of exercise
No, running is not everyone’s favorite form of exercise. The mindless jarring forward with little-to-no reprieve can last fifteen, twenty or thirty minutes before a solid, worthwhile distance run is knocked out for the day.

A short film that explains the value of an activity, such as running, that is not only healthy physically, but enables reflection for the war fighter.
Is Physical Fitness a Part of Your Loadout?
The human body is an incredible machine, capable of both monumental feats of strength and delicate maneuvers of finesse. However, it needs fuel and regular maintenance to function at its highest capacity. A high level of physical fitness can make all the difference from outrunning an assailant, increasing clarity of mind while under duress, and […]
