Obstacles on the steeplechase include gates, logs layed across the path, a stream with loads of rocks and boulders in which goes under a bridge, and 6 water jumps.

You will only do the steeplechase followed by the assault course on p-company. And its only 1 lap of the assault course. On screening week you do the steeplechase ONLY, NOT the assault course. :roll:

jolly good you just cut 1.56 min of quality training time sminted, anyway its not cardio fitness that will get you through depo its corridor PE, thrashings in the land of nod, beastings of NHB fighting PTI's, lots of scoff, being at the front of every que from scoff house to shower and shitter, sense of humour, black fist after black fist so you nearly piss yerself on tabs,Aussie burgers from the naffi, cracking the ghurkas on the head when the cheeky feckers try to sneak past you in que to spar,twating the muppet that uses all the milk tea and sugar you just bought for the staffs brews, generaly not being a total nugget and if all that fails give the DS a hoop dhobi or blowjob in the drying room and you will be fine yup running fast its the be all and end all :lol:

Ive only just read this post, and not that it matters but;
the fastest runner ever is only 25mph-30mph and thats only over 100 (less actually) meters.
When Ben Johnson broke the olympic record in Calgary, I know he took performance enhancing drugs but bare with me, at the 60m point he was running at 32 mph. My car struggles for that some times!!!

One of our screws made us all learn "The Prayer" off Full Metal Jacket. You know, the one that goes "This is my rifle. There are many like it but this one is mine. My rifle is my best friend, it is my life. I must master it as i must master my life....." Except nobody bothered to learn it, so whenever it came to us performing it, we got a MOAB :lol:
