I'd like to make next week the official regiment appreciation week from now on. Which means I will be making some pretty important announcements for our team and the cool stuff that we're going to be doing together in the future. There are an endless amount of group pages out there full of their own flavor of WODs, workout posts and reposts - yet 300+ people stick together and revel in the unique personality that we share.

Our identity, which shines the light not on the end result but the journey we each take to get to that result is hard to find in this society of instant gratification. As I say to our regiment elites as they're about to get their patch, your actions inspire others. When people see you running a race they will have one of two internal dialogues. The first one is "Holy crap, that guy podiums these events and I'm at his pace? I think I can do this!". The second thought is "If this guy can carry a tire and/or rucksack and do multiple laps, I can pull through this and finish my first run!". No matter the scenario, you do amazing things for others.

Keep it up, folks.
