Today I was told that I have 6 days to be able to pass a physical abilities test. I must run a 10 minute mile and complete a 100 yd obstacle course in 1:45 sec.....

Yesterday I ran an 11 minute mile. Today I will be running twice...I will post those results later.

I ask that everyone please pray for me, because I HAVE to pass this test! It is mandatory...I have testing anxiety and mild asthma, sometimes I almost hyper-ventilate at the starting line from my anxiety. I need everyone's strength and encouragement to help me stay calm...

THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE
... and keep pushing! =)

    I will definitely pray for you. If you can run an 11 minute mile, I KNOW you have it in you to push yourself to a 10 minute mile. I don't know you, but I have faith that you can do it. You WILL triumph over anxiety and asthma. Show them who's boss! You got this girly!!!!!! Congratulations in advance! :wink: :drinker: :flowerforyou:

    Praying for you! I used to be in the Army, and always got the WORST anxiety about P.T. tests. Use all of that nervous adrenaline to boost your speed!

    Ok...to reply to everyone that wished me well...etc...THANK YOU! I would send individual messages, but it'd take too long. lol I will DEFINITELY be informing you all of results, so please expect them on tuesday, wednesday at the latest (unless i get really busy). I have been going to the gym twice a day (a grand total of about 3-4 hours), working with a personal trainer, stretching like crazy, and being VERRRRRY anal about what I put in my body at least these next few days. Hopefully it pays off. I'm feeling pretty positive right now too! =)

    AGAIN.........THANK YOU ALL! =_

    Well, I went for my Physical Fitness Test (PT) and they rescheduled on me! OMG! Well, that just gives me even more time to train and get ready. Today I went out to an obstacle course and worked out with my boo (he is SOOOOOO supportive through all of this) and I overcame a LOT of my worries. Hopefully it will be warm and the test will be a breeze on the 8th of Feb! =)
