ItsNOTlikeTHAT

Couldn't sleep so decided to give this a go, 10.15 for my first attempt. Really disappointed at that but for the last few months I've been running 3 - 4 10k's a week so suddenly trying to run fast was a shock to the system! Sure I can get well under 10 mins next time.

good enough for the infantry mate.

Well maybe I shouldn't be so hard on myself then! I notice your recent time is 9.50 and you say this is a little slower than it has been, I also noticed in your journal that your bulking, do you find the extra weight you're carrying makes a big difference?

Push ups are looking good mate, what unit are you in?

Re:1.5 mile run challenge (ItsNOTlikeTHAT)

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 22:30:10 GMT

Had another BPFA test on Monday. New unit and all that.

Results:

2mins pushups: 96
2mins situps: 65
1.5 mile run: 9.50

CHuffed with the pushups, although my run time has gone down a bit.

Are you taking the p**s 10m sas selection ha!!!
When i started my basic training MY run time was around 9.40, but by the time I finished it was 8.20, but this was far from the best depends what regiment you join.

12 mins, 10 is very good mate, your talking SAS selection with that.

Haven't updated my time for a bit. I concentrated on cardio from early spring, right through summer this year. I could get my mile and a half down to 9mins 40 seconds. Honestly don't think I'd get it down any further, it was a killer when finished.

Drill-hall instruction, weekend exercises and all other TA training are to stop for six months -
They still do pre-deployment training. But honestly, I see no problem. If they want to create a fuss about it, then just join the REAL army.

Government have screwed the economy so they have pretty much closed down the TA until April to save money. Only personel going on tour will train between now and then.
