Im going junior entry at harrogate and i got 8:32 Pretty proud.
I think if you do a lot better in all the other tests like dynamic lift and everything else... they let you off with your run time.
hey guys i am myself waiting for my test date to join paras, am 32 and my run time is at 9mins 4 secs for 1.5 amd 19mins 34 secs for 3 .... so think have cracked that lets just hope knees and shins hold up lol any advice would be greatfull. I did join marines in 03 but came out at week 6 worst mistake ever made so its now or never , if that bloke who filmed commando on the front line can pass marine training at 50 then i have hope lol.... aaron
You are a very lucky man to be given the opportunity at 32 to join Para Regt!
Do yourself a favour & don't mention that you failed Marines at week 6, whilst you are in training.
You'll be setting yourself up for pisstaking & ridicule, not only by the staff but the recruits too!
Don't really want to put a dampener on your attempt, but how are you going to pass P Company if you can't pass the Marine Course?
Good luck mate..........You're going to need it! :D
no run time is the biggest swinger in selection, or so my interviewing officer at selection told me
i managed a 9:41 run time which is good considering i passed selection for RE, my strength is lacking to be honest so i cant wait for basic, i completed the jerry can carry and did 9 heaves, but i hope to do better
are the fitness tests you do at the start of harrogate like the ones at ADSC?
got mine from around 12:42 to my record 10.26 today in just over 2 weeks, been fartlecking between lamposts, and probably because my dad had his boot up my arse and wouldnt let me stop : ( hes gonna have to start taking his bike because he cant keep up, hehe
