- Today you will do exercises outside, at the field. Follow me.

That 's what we did.

- You’re going to run.

- Just that? - asked Alex

- No. You will do a circuit. Run for 10 minutes and then do exercises like pushups, abdominal training, burpees, the same exercises you have done at Ilwon but more difficult. This circuit will last 2 hours with only a break of 15 minutes. After the circuit, the three of you are going to walk around the field while lifting a heavy tire, as you can see the military doing there.

- And we will lift the same heavy tire as them? - asked Caitlyn

- We do not want you to be crushed in the beginning of your training, so you will lift a lighter one. Now, get to work.

As always, Alex was the leader of the run. He never seems tired of running, and that’s the worst part!
I was always behind him, and Caitlyn was the last one and was always at the same rhythm, although in order for a funny and plausible reason.

- Martinez! - Captain Pierce yielded - Put your eyes on the field, not on the men!

- I’m sorry captain.

- Captain, maybe if you called on one of those men and he started to run with us, Caitlyn would turn into a rocket. - Alex said.

I couldn't help, I had to laugh.

- Keep moving Martinez!

- I’m moving, Sir. I’m sorry Sir.

She’s the best, and a meme in person!
10 minutes passed, and it was time for the exercises. I have improved in the pushups, but not enough. As for the other exercises, my performance was excellent.
The circuit was repeated a lot of times and soon enough it was time for the tire lifting.

- Just two rounds around the field. You can do it. Go! - ordene the Captain

- Just two, as if the field wasn’t of the size of the entire earth. - Said Caitlyn. Me and Alex laughed. It’s impossible not to laugh when Caitlyn is around.

It was hard to do it, in fact. I was very tired, my whole body was sweating, my hair was wet like it was washed. Some raindrops would help to ease this hell.
The only person who seemed better with the exercise was Caitlyn, what? How can she be okay with it? Even Alex was struggling, although not so much as I was.
Later, the training session ended.

- It was good, recruits. Next time all of you will be better. You can go shower.

- Thanks Captain. - We all said

- Hey, Caitlyn, how can you be so good with tire lifting? -I asked

- A militar gave me a glance to join him later, so I was motivated.

- What? You’re serious? Oh my god, only you can do something like that. - we laughed. Alex was already gone, maybe he was too tired and wanted to relax quickly.
