No messing around there then. I had to wait a month from my interview to selection - I've got selection on the 21st may. Have you been training hard?
Yes mate I've been training like an animal, I've been training for the last 3 years anyway though. There was a lad who wasn't ready for selection so they pulled him off and put me in his place.

Officially you would pass the run but you are graded over the whole 2 days and that grade determines how quickly you will start basic. If your run time is just scraping in then it might not get you such a good grade as if it would if you clocked 10:00-10:30.

The Rifles are a great Regiment with plenty of history. All the Infantry Regiments have really shown their worth once they have been given the opportunity.
Not everyone wants to join the Para’s, no more than others want to the drive a tank or be an engineer. All the best.
