Well after 31 weeks of hard work, and an extremely long emotional day day yesterday ive got my green lid!! The 30 miler was the hardest thing ive done in my life, physically and mentally, there were parts like the rest of training where I thought I wasn't going make it. To be honest, I didn't think I would get this far, espescially as an original, but I did and im now a royal marine!! For those of you that are about to start training, don't forget why you wanted to do it in the first place, the feeling when you come over the bridge is amazing! If anyone has any questions about training, fire away!! Also cheers for all the advice this website has provided me!

Tomharto 30.
Good luck with your posting to whichever Cdo.
I also thought the 30 miler was an absolute bastard.
Possibly since I am in my dotage (68 on the Bank Hol)
I may have missed it - but is there a 931 Trp going
through training ? I was in 931 yonks ago !
Yours aye,
Chas.
