Rangers, my scores are improving, but not fast enough. My goal is a 300 APFT by the time i ship, as well as 20 pull-ups. I will test my 5 mile this Saturday with a goal of 45 minutes.

[Jim]

I will test my 5 mile this Saturday with a goal of 45 minutes.

Well Conner, how did you do on the 5 mile run?

[CH525]

Ranger Jim, my 5 mile run time was 47:24. I will be measuring it every 2 weeks and get my time under 40 minutes by as much as possible before I ship.

Consider researching a running improvement plan if you have not done that. Sometimes "Doing as much as possible as fast as possible" is not the best way to build endurance or strength...

Rangers, I researched running improvement plans, and found one that fits my current abilities and goals that I’ll use until I ship. The program is designed to get the runner under 50 minutes for a 10k, which should put my 5 mile under 40 minutes.
I also ordered an ALICE pack that should arrive sometime this week and will begin rucking on Saturday.

[Jim]

Conner, Continue to work on your task-list. Never, never quit!

Conner, you have not post on the five mentee thread since 27 March. Please get to work on your task list.

Push-ups- 62
Sit-ups- 81
Pull-ups- 17
No 2-mile run, I've been getting shin splints and am going to let them recover for another week.

I'm almost done with high school and only have a couple weeks of testing left. My graduation is the day I ship, so I won't be able to attend. My recruiter said that getting my diploma a day or two early shouldn't be a problem though, and I am looking forward to shipping.

[Jim]

Conner, understand the HS diploma is the priority, Continue to work on task-list and be sure to open a SITREP in the Letters from School thread prior to your shipping to OSUT. Never, never quit!
