Absolutely brilliant. The British Army has produced a series of podcasts (hence the story’s appearance here) designed to get you, the average loaf-about, into tip-top shape. Let’s give ’em a listen, shall we?
So the podcast is free, of course, and is called Army Fit: Personal. The podcast is divided into several levels, and I’m listening right now to level one, beginner.
Oh god yes, there’s a dance beat in the background. It sort of sounds like Menu music from Wipeout for the PlayStation. I guess that’s the difference between the Brits and their American cousins: whereas the U.S. Army would have used something like Metallica in the background, the Brits are skipping along to pop-trance. Plus 200 DKP.
There’s a British man yelling at me. “Every minute counts!” and “You can do it!” and “I can see your sweat!” and “Believe and you’ll achieve!”
See, if I had a video camera I could have made a fun two-minute video out of this. Jogging around in the snow and whatnot.
Yes, we’re sorta in a holding pattern till CES starts up tomorrow and Wednesday.
