Well, i'm not sure any of you will care, but i hope you do because it was a very special event. It is the first ever "Army Run" and it is an annual event. This event has also broken the record for the most attendants in any Canadian Inaugural event. More than 7,000 supporters showed up to show their support towards the troops.

I also stumbled across a video of myself on Youtube as well as the event itself. I appear at 0:15 of the video and im the furthest on the right, the tallest soldier there. My job as well as my troops were to kind of barricade the runners and do a parade infront of TV cameras, the highest people in charge of the Canadian Forces, AKA, Chief of Defense Staff and Chief of Landforce Staff. It was really intimidating because all these people were here to support us and the worst part is that we had 15 minutes to learn the drill, where to go, when to stop, all the orders...It sucked, but it was a really neat experience.
