I'm a scientist, for crying out loud! Why am I letting them force me into this?

I like to jog, but not with a crowd. I don't even know most of these people. Yeah, we worked on Icarus, but I never really knew them. Hell, I'd only been there four months when everything blew up. I'd only just remembered Volker's first name.

On Icarus, I could jog when I wanted, not when I was told to do it. Where does Colonel Young get off telling us to exercise? Do push-ups and run stupid drills. That Sergeant Spencer is a real piece of work. Young needs to rein in his ass.

On Icarus, jogging was like … freedom. Icarus may have been a desert planet, but at night, when the cool breeze came up, it was heaven. And so quiet. The moons lit the desert sands up beautifully. I could see forever. I could really clear my head. Five miles on a good stretch of flat, hard pan, extend my pace and almost float over the sand.

Yeah, that was freedom.

Jogging inside this Ancient spaceship, with these whiny-assed strangers and hard-core military types - no way.
