I have been in the TA for around 6 months now and i have to say it's one of the best things i've ever done. It has given me the tools to scratch a miltary ictch that has been bugging me ever since i failed Royal Marines selection.
The group of lads who i joined with are a really good bunch and we ...

Right lads, I have my date for PRMC....18th October, have been training like a b*stard! PJFT 9:32 and did a CFT with the TA at the weekend, finished with no problems. I think i'm about ready for this now, gonna keep training fitness wise but mentally, i'm ready.

I'll be heading down to Lympstone for my PRMC onthe 18th oct.

That's great guys, really appreciate the advise, i will alter my running route accordingly and let you know how i get on. Cheers.

I think it's disgusting the way some people pretend to be sf. I am currently trying to get into the Royal Marines, and knowing what the SAS and SBS (respectivly) go through to do what they do makes me shiver. SF is something i would love to have the opportunity to not be able to tell anyone about ...

Hi,
I don't have a confirmed date for my PRMC as yet, i have to run the PJFT this Thursday which wont be a problem as i'm running 1.5miles in around 9.50 at the min. I usually run 3miles in around 20mins at the mo, bearing in mind that is on fresh legs i need to get some more training in.

Thanks for the advise druadan, i'll knock the training up and just keep going. Good luck in foundation and the weeks after.

I know that feeling, the first time i was put on the vehicle, the second time i was 300m from the finish. It's the worst feeling in the world.

You can have three attempts as long as CTCRM allow it.
I failed both previous times on the three mile run, i have never been a comfortable runner at long distances, i will be the first to admit though, i just gave up.

Hey Guys,
I'm facing my third PRMC following two fails, any advise?
I have read the PRMC diary, it was brilliant and has highlighted some issues that i need to address.

cheers

Hi guys,
Just found this place. I'm going for my third attempt at PRMC, failed on the 3 mile run twice now in 1998 and 2001. Here's to lady luck!

I will update progress!!
