haha cheers lads fathomed it out now.

i cannot for the life of me figure out how this website works. how do you create a route?

try and measure the 1.5 mile with a car or something. I used my old scooter to measure it for me. Seriously though mate wouldn't you use a stop watch to time yourself?

Hi
Could anyone provide me with an insight to life at Leconfield. I'm going in the RAF as an MT Driver and would like to now how things are run at Leconfield for RAF personnel as i believe it is run by the Army i stand corrected if im wrong.
Cheers

Peter1034 I have a start date for Halton of the 20th August, my occupation will be MT Driver after getting through training of course!
Have you been given any dates yet matey?

Your nearly right its 12 mins for men and 14 for women. To be honest i wouldn't mind putting in a good time of something like 9mins 45 secs or something if you see where im coming from, dont want to be slow and only just complete it in time with ease

Thanks for the advice and quick reply mate cheers.

Hey all
Just wondering, i've got my pjft for the RAF next week and was looking for some advice. What should i do for a couple of days before my pjft, rest or keep up the training?
cheers.

Cheers for all the advice lads, always helps when you get advice off people who have been in your shoes and done it.
Thanks a lot and great forum by the way!

Thanks a lot lads.
Stokey, great advice mate, just looked up Tabata sprints there lethal haha going to give it all a go though. How long should I spend doing my hill sprint session? Oh and what do you mean by recovery run (1.5mile steady pace or something?)
Cheers

Oh right well I'll take your advice on that cheers.
I'm waiting for a date for my fitness test for the RAF.
Going in as an MT Driver if every thing goes well!!
Cheers

My 1.5 mile at its best was 9mins 45, have since been injured though so a slight dip in form these past few weeks currently at 10mins 15.
Once or twice a week doing Fartlek training? Was thinking of doing it 3 times or is that too much
Cheers for the quick reply

just started to include fartlek training into my training programme to up the pace a little bit (really hard haha)
just wondering with this inclusion of the fartlek training how drastically would my fitness come on?
cheers.

Oh right cheers mate. Sorry I'm new to the forum.

Just wondering if there's anybody out there who wouldn't mind becoming a training partner of mine
I'm not a bad runner up to about a 4 miler at the moment, but I need someone to push me.
I'm currently situated in Moorends, Doncaster.
It's a great area to jog around, there's an old disused pit ...
