Winning the fight isn't always the purpose. That's probably good enough to gain some distance, and for the foreseeable future all of them are on the run. All in all this is going pretty well. Ben is game to give it another try, so why quit now?

He nods, takes in a deep breath. "Keep running. But slow down a little."

It's going well enough that he thinks he can keep pace and toss a few, one at a time. The movement's more important than the speed, and he doesn't want to be too far from the ship. Plus he hasn't got the stamina he used to, but he'd rather not admit to that part.
