Unit run

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I do not see this term actually used in any sources. Rusf10 (talk) 04:11, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak Keep. Some official military website (.mil domain name instead of random sites) refers to the term [1 ][2 ]. FM-722 also refers to unit run as one of the scheduled exercises [3 ], also used in Citadel Military School. It is also briefly mentioned on this book. Some media (which I admit not fully reliable) also mentioned it in here and here. A Twitter from official military account also have used the term. I think it may weakly pass WP:GNG, but it is far from not used in any sources. SunDawn (talk) 09:14, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
 * One has also to look to see whether there is anything about morning runs taken by entire units. It's more than simple phrase matching.  Uncle G (talk) 12:55, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep Military units usually engage in morale-building exercise of this sort. The doctrine of the US Marines may be found in manuals such as this.  The rest is then a matter of ordinary editing not deletion per WP:ATD. Andrew🐉(talk) 08:06, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
 * The term is used exactly one time in that source, we're nowhere near passing WP:GNG.--Rusf10 (talk) 14:47, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete: per nom, per WP:NAD, fails further WP:GNG CommanderWaterford (talk) 17:22, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete Military units engage in all sorts of exercises and group activities, and I fail to see why something as mundane as running together, as many people trying to stay fit do regularly, is notable. We need an encyclopedia article to tell us "Distance and pace of the run depend on the terrain, weather, and overall fitness level of the unit." and you run for "Physical conditioning"??

 * Delete - per Reywas92. Yes, military units sometimes run together, and yes, if you google the two words you can find some things stating this.  There is not, however, sufficient coverage to indicate why this is notable.  The sources from the two "keep" arguments above are simply times the two words were used together, not actual coverage on the concept or indication of notability.
