This soldier refused to give up on an Army road march. Your thoughts?

Obtaining any skill badge I'd a true test and shows what the soldier is capable of. Having been an evaluator at the EFMB and having my EFMB I understand the dedication required. I'm proud when anyone publish videos of this accomplishment.

Only one thing grinds my gears about videos like this. She made it, in plenty of time just the final stretch was rough. However I feel videos should also be taken of those that succeed easily as well. Because the soldier that did the ruck in 2.5hrs trained to do that. That shows their determination as well.
As for being a female, that doesn't matter in my opinion. That would be like saying I'm surprised an officer got it. We are an Army that is moving to pure equality. At this point it's cheer for those that make it, and pick up and retrain the ones that dont.

To watch any Airmen, Soldiers, Marines, Sailors and Coasties fight and achieve their goals is awesome! I dont care what your gender or race or sexual orientation is. If you are fighting to achieve a goal or objective and you succeed we are all proud! In this instance I am proud for her!

Great to see....Army strong! Isn't that what we want from all our soldiers? Guts, seeing the job thru and having enough character not to quit?

I absolutely love it!! What's even more impressive is how much support she had from her fellow soldiers and that's what it's all about. We are one team and we push each other to great lengths and hold one another accountable. Very impressed with the video as a whole. It's inspiring to see someone go through something like that and never give up.

Saw that on Facebook and although im not Army, nor a medic it made me proud to see my brothers and sisters in arms overcome struggles and reach their goals. However I was disappointed at the amount of people discounted her and scoffed at struggling with a 12 mile ruck, infantry this and infantry that we do that daily ect... However many people defended her and said that she likely didn't have many daily opportunities like the infantry to accomplish such as that is not her MOS. I don't understand why some people have to get in those jabs and discount someone's accomplishments. I say well done and am proud she fought on to accomplish her goals!

Doesn't matter that the soldier is male or female. Or the fact that they are a soldier... I wish more people had this type of intestinal fortitude to not give up their goals and dreams. GET IT!

Awesome display of courage and determination. Well done!!!!

Seems simple, she didn't quit. This video motivates me. The cheering by others after the CPT finished was pretty awesome.

I was a little harsh in my initial response: Being critical of the 12-mile length. Shoot, dehydration seems to be the least of her concerns in this video. We've all had PT sessions were we ran to the head faster than we finished the run, right? Regardless, she friggin' finished! I don't think there needs to be any issue made sex or rank here. And there are few more motivating things than to see a person overcoming their own obstacles. If I read the stats on this event correctly, less than 20% of those who start actually make it to the finish line. Captain Cudd can stand proudly with the minority of soldiers who completed this task. Bravo-Zulu, Skipper!

As many will note, a Soldier digging deep into their core to accomplish a goal is inspiring - regardless of gender.

Outstanding accomplishment!
