Spalding Re-run

Alright, we had a really awesome day. Unfortunatly our rope bridge really kind of messed up today, for both the guys and the girls, but other than that it was awesome. We brought home five trophies, and I must admit that I can't remember all of them, but the girls got a 4th place trophy in the litter-carry, and they got third place overall. I'm so proud of them, they really deserve it. They did great. I was only a sub again today, but I really worked my butt off. They almost didn't take me, but I got lucky and got to go. I really hauled my butt off as hard as I could to show them how much I love this and how much I wanna come. I really hurt my heels today, though, and can hardly walk they hurt so bad. But I kept going and kept going no matter how bad it hurt and would have followed them on the litter carry to shoot the video but it was so bad I literally couldn't run. I couldn't even make myself run. Colonel didn't know that, but he knew my heels were messed up really bad so he didn't let me go anyways. I really respect him a lot. He may be a little strict but he's got really good reasons behind it. And when he's not being strict, which is most all the time, he's really nice and he's fun to be around. I like being around him whether he's happy or not. He's a really great guy, and unfortanetly he's not coming with us to Hiram next week. That really makes me sad because it's not gonna be as much fun without him. Oh well, at least I get to pick on Sergeant.

Y'all I really thank you so much for supporting us. I told Sergeant and Colonel about you guys and they both think it's really cool that y'all are supporting us. You have no idea how much it means to me to have you guys supporting us. Thank you so much and I really hope we can get even more of our awesome friends on here replying to these posts and showing their support for us. Thank you all so much and I may even try to get Colonel or Sergeant to send a special thank you to y'all. It'll be through my account but it'll be their words. Thanks again and good luck to YOU on whatever you're doing.

Way to go Cadet!!!! You are doing good. Thing is most of all you are learning to be a very integral part of a team. Teams, when truly team members can do far more than thier mere numbers. But then I think you are starting to learn that!
Congrats.

Jordan, if you continue to support your team members and show that gung-ho spirit, you'll be running with the first string in no time. Your leaders are looking for people who keep a good positive attitude and never-say-die spirit. Soon you will be able to anticipate their wants and needs, and that will give you an extra step. Keep up the good work. It is great to hear a young person who is so passionate about something so positive. You are a role model for your peers.
