Oh and I hope you guys don't mind, but I'm going to brag about the XO at my Sq, he did 100 push up's last night. He beat the sea cadet!

The 7 minute mark is an average time. So it's not so bad.

Well, when I played sports I messed up my knee, and that is why I haven't been involved with sports and very little physical activity (other then CAP) for a little over two years. It wasn't until recently I have been getting back into swimming and I might start playing soccer again in a year. It all depends how my knee is doing, the last thing I want is surgery. So I'm gonna lay low and see if I can play for my college in a year!

holy i ran my mile and a half in 11 minutes its cause i dont run my lungs arent in shpae im a really fast runner its just that i never run and i got tired easily and we ran it in the cold

Don't woory ROTC boy, It's not bragging unless you can do it.

We don't run by miles here, but I can do a 5.3 km run in about 22 mins. However, that was in October, and I have been slacking a bit.

yea i would settle for a good 2 Km's but we have to do the mile in CAP

I used to do the 2.4 km run back when I was in Cadets, but now that's a thing of the past. The runs we do here are much longer. They can range anywhere from 5 km to 10 km, but it's the 5.3 km that they actually use as a time base. That or the 5 km. Depends on the activity we're doing it for.

But yeah...on any other day, I'd happily settle for a 2 km, but we don't get that luxury here in the Reg Force.
