Yeah, and you've discovered the importance of higher beings. Celebrities... like me, as people who worship and guide you to truth.

Exercising the Truth is a Strangers and Freaks mission in Grand Theft Auto V, given to protagonist Michael De Santa by the Epsilon Program. This mission is the penultimate mission in The Truth mission series.

Overview

The mission begins at an unnamed collection of mobile homes in the western half of the Grand Senora Desert, just north of Harmony. The location is not immediately marked on the game map but will appear once Michael enters the Desert area. Additionally, Michael must wear his Epsilon uniform for the mission to start.

At the location, Michael meets Marnie AllenJimmy Boston, and Tom. The three are pleased with his progress and Jimmy awards Michael a medal for his efforts. At that point, Cris Formage, the leader of the Epsilon Program, speaks over a nearby loudspeaker and also congratulates Michael. Cris tells Michael that Michael is very near to enlightenment. When Cris's message ends, Marnie tells Michael that next he must deliver a large donation to the Epsilon Program headquarters in Rockford Hills. But first, he must run five miles through the desert.

The three Epsilon members leave. Michael must then travel five miles on foot throughout the Grand Senora Desert. At each tenth of a mile, a message will display above the radar, showing the player the distance Michael has walked or run. If Michael leaves the desert, the count will reset and the player must start over. Within these limitations, Michael can do anything within the Grand Senora Desert's borders, including visit towns, shop at stores, commit crimes, gain and lose wanted levels and so on. Watch out for dogs and cougars as they may attack Michael, wasting him instantly and resetting the progress.

Upon reaching four miles, Michael receives a call from Cris, telling Michael that he is nearly finished. At five miles, Cris calls Michael again and congratulates him. Michael asks if he is done, Cris explains that his journey has only began and that he must now deliver the large donation to the Epsilon center.

Tips

This mission usually takes between 15 and 20 minutes to complete, depending on how fast the player runs (over an hour if not running at all).

Exercising the truth GTAVe Round in circles

Wearing a trail in the sand.

  • One way to complete this mission quickly is to take the controller and place a rubber band or string around the left analog stick, and attach the other end around the controller, so the left analog stick is stuck in one direction, effectively making Michael walk in circles repetitively. This is even easier on the PC, by placing an object on the keyboard.
  • Should the player wish to complete this mission manually, running around the perimeter of the Sandy Shores Airfield a couple of times is recommended as no cougars or dogs appear here, though the player should watch out for aircraft.
  • Depending on where the player chooses to travel those five miles, it's advised to bring a weapon, to protect from cougars.

Glitches

  • Both the PS3 and Xbox 360 have a glitch in which Fromage's does not call Michael the first time until after Michael has completed all five miles, with the follow-up call arriving immediately after, though this is rare. This can also happen on the Xbox one version, with Michael hanging up on Cris. This is fixed by simply waiting a minute or two and the call will come through again.
