Friday PT

Nothing makes me more excited about life than knowing that I will have the pleasure of waking up at 5:30 tomorrow. Even after so many years, I still don't know quite what to expect. Will we be strapping on the cross country skis this fine January morning? With four inches of snow on the ground it would certainly seem appropriate. I suppose it is no better than the alternative. Has anyone every tried to play basketball with the natural athletes of Army ROTC? I would never deliberately insult the skills of fellow cadets; however, game days are a unique opportunity to observe the world class competitors ROTC has to offer. All joking aside, days without running are a welcomed change, especially after a PT test. A few games of basketball are always a good time, but nothing is more satisfying than drilling Major Freeland or LTC Keith with a dodge ball. Don't take these days too lightly. Even though you won't be running and sweating as much as usual, you will still smell like alcohol. There is no better way to get written off as a drunk than by showing up reeking of Captain Morgan and DP Dough. Take it easy tonight and hope it's too cold to run tomorrow.
