She's the perfect workout buddy. She always willing to work harder, and she gives me someone to compete against a little bit.

Are you trying to say something about Mal, Mute ^-^?

Haha, I think she is referring to Java leaving my slow ass behind. It's one of the reasons I dislike running--I don't mind doing other workouts like martial arts or even spin, just because it's not quite as obvious I'm not functioning at the same level as everyone else and I'm not as easily discouraged. Though when I took krav for a while, we did run around in the gym, but they were such small laps and we had to a bunch of random crap while doing it, so that wasn't so bad.

When I was in basic we did a lot of "last runner up", which, if there is ever a hell I'm condemned to, it will involve endless iterations of that. I can understand the premise of it, but unless I'm running in a group of only females, I invariably fall out. It's one thing if it's just one person hanging back to keep pace with someone else, but I've never liked the idea of making a whole mess of people hang back for people at lower levels. It just breeds resentment. (I also hate squadron runs for the same reason--it's just on a much larger scale. Hurghghghgh.)

One of my higher ups had this "brilliant" idea to make our flight do FIP sessions with airmen from our flight for "morale". FIP (the Fitness Improvement Program) is primarily for airmen who have failed their PT test or have been identified as needing an extra kick in the pants prior to their test to ensure they don't fail. Nothing about his idea to do FIP sessions made sense. If I were on FIP, having an entire other flight show up not only makes it easier for me to hide in a gaggle of people and resume doing little to no work, I would have a steady stream of obscenities in my brain as I curse the people who are in better shape than me taking up space, haha.
