If you fail and are fantastically out of the time limit I think it's a back troop, but if you need to shave a few seconds or so I think they will make you do it again.

Ive heard the 1.5 mile run at Catterick is a lot harder than most of the ADSC runs.
Anyone able to confirm or ellaborate on this? :)

1.5 is 1.5 and the time limit is the time limit. So no it can't be harder.

if a 1.5m route is over undulating terrain as opposed to flatter ground then yes it can be classed as physically harder.

Don't think about it just do it.
It's running, you've been doing a lot of that already to get where you are so it's just more of that.

What goes up must come down, where it gets hard running up the hill just open your legs going down hill. And the hills arnt mountians!

everyone will be in the same boat,(and no it's not a real boat before someone starts a new thread) if you are concerned about it that much try to find some hilly terrain near where you live and give it a go, or get a bus out to somewhere if you cant find any in the immediate area.
