So, training is over and we're getting ready to ship out on Monday. Yesterday our team gave our first official briefing to our unit leader and the pacific region director, which went off without a hitch. I think the briefing was the first time we've completed a stressful task as a group. I was a little nervous about us at first, but after seeing how well it went yesterday I think we're going to do well together.

Yesterday morning we had our second PT baseline. I managed 49 pushups, 69 situps, a 1.5 mile time of 10:57, and 13.5" on the sit and reach test. I'm really happy about my running speed, although I think that can mostly be attributed to starting at the front of the group this time.
