PFT
Well, I took my pre-ship PFT today. I did 17 pullups (only 15 counted), 100 situps, and ran 3 miles in 22 minutes, 45 seconds. Obviously, I sucked it up on the run. But then again it was 85 degrees outside (on blacktop too). All together that gives me a 245. Which, while not bad, is five points below what I made last time. We then went and did a horrendus Upper-Body workout. I can't touch my hair now. Holding a phone to my ear is painful. Jeez.
On my third day at OCS I'll take another PFT. The problem with this one is that the 3-mile course is actually 3.1 miles and they give you all of your shots right before. That way your arms are all nice and sore for pullups. Basically, what I need is more padding on my run-time in case I have a bad day. If I take longer than 24 minutes to complete the 3.1, I get chewed out and sent home. Not good. So now I run my ass off.
Other than that, I'm ready to ship. OCS here I come! 15 Days to go!
