. The steeplechase was one of, if not THE hardest thing I've ever done in my life, It was pissing it down when we did the steeple chase so even running the straight stretches was a challenge because of the mud.
I did take a suit and I did need it, so thanks guys..
Well done mucker!
Any ideas of when you will be in depot?

I started my app in january/febuary, I'm not sure when I did my barb test but its taken me around 6 months. I think If there's no major problems its normaly 6-8 months start to finish...

Well if eveything goes well on ADSC, you then have to do another test called PRAC which is actually with the PARAs at Catterick. So after ASC 3/4 months.
