We got a hot tip from OBT that Cadre Danny likes to use a Physical Fitness Test during his GRTs.  The test is 100 burpees, 1 mile run, 50 burpees, and a 1 mile run.  OBT said the time hack was 32 minutes one time and 36 another (there were hills).

Mosey to the rock pile for the warm-up:  SSH IC x 25; IW IC x 25; Way Backs IC x 15; Windmills IC x 15

Physical Fitness Test:  100 burpees, 1 mile run, 50 burpees, 1 mile run.

  • Tool and Maverick got caught by the train and arrived right after we had started doing burpees.  They asked how many we were doing and we replied 100.  After 10 or 15 they asked again…”How many are we doing?”  Again, we replied 100.
  • I knew Rudy did not have clearance from his doctor to do burpees, so I told him he should go to the Skinny.  He didn’t listen.  When given the option between going to the Skinny or possibly breaking your pinky again, the choice is clear.  I wonder what it would take to get someone from Rock City to actually go to The Skinny?  The threat of a broken pinky is clearly not enough.
  • I was impressed by what the Pax accomplished today.  Everyone performed well and I believe we had 5 men finish sub 32 minutes.
