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! :D

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. :oops:

Think I might have to get some of my mates to beast me for 3 days so I feel a bit better! :lol:

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.
