i think its a good idea for me to start my cardio training, running, swimming. what would you say is a good distance for me to start running?

hi dan...yer as prmhanson says..PRMC is tough and will demand alot of you..but not impossible..they push you easily out of your comfort zone..but if you prepare correctly and have the right attitude youl do fine..i found most stuff ok..
dont get me wrong its a tough few days..but i was still feeling good even after bottom field warm up...but i paid for it..i did the final obstacle on the assault course 3 times...nice

We dont know how fit you are dan. Go out and try running. Go at a comfortable pace and see how far you get. Or just run round a football pitch till you feel fatigued enough that you feel you need to stop and just add more laps/distance to your runs and do them faster as you get fitter. Use your knoggin lad :lol:
