Ok, so we had a challenge set up today to well challenge us (some of us) in a predominately physical manner. After all this was done and dusted, I headed off to the gym and did another session which I have attached underneath today's activities.
DP1 Check (full kit inspection)
Run 2.4 km and then get changed into Ceremonial Dress - time to complete 25 min
Ceremonial Dress inspection (this was interesting since everyone was still drenched in sweat). Ok, please note, if you want to do a dress inspection, by all means do so, but at least have the common courtesy to be in the same uniform as those you are inspecting.
Stores carry - not really that difficult at all, a few torsion bars, a couple of ammo boxes, a truck tire and conflicting instructions.
Stretcher carry - maybe 1km to the swimming pool. Yet again a rather interesting exercise, but not the time nor place to go any further with how I thought this little 'challenge' was handled by members of our directing staff.
Water crossing exercise (makes for fun and games when you have people who can't swim)
Run 2.4 km
Written assessments
This is what I did afterwards:
6 Rounds of:
20 Shoulder Press @ 30kg
20 Sumo Dead Lift High Pull @ 30kg
20 Atomic Crunches
20 Squats
200m row
The row was meant to be a 100m swim but since I spent 40+ minutes in cams and boots (with all my kit in a make shift bag so it would float) dragging a raft back and forth in a pool, retrieving dropped weapons from the bottom of the pool (3 point whatever meters deep), I figured a row would suffice.
