My goal for the last year has been to beat the minimum run time for a military special programs fitness test. After 14 months (11 of which were spent doing laps in the well deck of a fully loaded amphibious ship...) of working up to it, I finished a 4.2 mile run in 28 minutes an 18 seconds!!! Now I just gotta be able to finish the swim afterword and those damn pull ups!!
