You should have posted this on the Para section mucker. Sounds like you should be ok with PRAC mate.
If you get through you could get a start date the same as me.
Would try and get some hills in on your runs though mate, there are plenty at Catterick!

No mate, got my date straight from ADSC. I've been in before so got told I didn't need to go up to Catterick. Feel a bit awkward now though because loads of lads who are in the application process have asked this.
Think I might have to get some of my mates to beast me for 3 days so I feel a bit better!

You need to be running alot, not just a gentle jog, get out your comphat zone. Also doing alot of pressups will give a leg up when your there.
