Hi

[AshSkett]

Someone told me about these forums today, first I had heard about them so thought I'd take a look- found it very interesting

I passed PRMC (Royal Marines) a couple of weeks ago, which means I will start training in just over 6 weeks. If anyone has got any tips or info, it would be much appreciated

Congratulations and passing..now it really does start!

Congratulations AshSkett, how did you find the PRMC ?

I myself have not done the PRMC yet, just getting into shape.

The guide posted on the Marine forums was pretty much spot on. If you go into PRMC thinking it's gonna be the tougest thing you've ever done, there's not much more you can do to prepare yourself mentally.

As for training, I suggest you get in a few 4 mile runs a week if you can. I was only doing 3 mile runs while in training and found the PRMC run tough 'cos I was tired from the first day. The one thing that kept me going was the thought 'if I stop now, I will have failed on something I do all the time at home'.

Good luck with it, I may cya in training some time
