Hi all! So when I applied for the Royal Navy I was obese in my BMI and seriously unfit, but I've knuckled down big time with the help of my AFCO and the Rocky films.
My first 2.4k run 4 months ago came in at a rocking 25 minutes but since then I have been running outside consistently every other day as often as I can and managed to lose the weight to pass my medical and today's run came in at 13.24 which I'm really happy about.
My only fear is that my pjft is in 1 week, and I'm hoping hard work will get me down to the 10.30 run with the help of a couple of bananas and an adrenaline rush... I suppose I'm looking for any tips or maybe some success stories of anyone that was in roughly the same boat?
Cheers lads!
