What the hell is a hang and what does that have to do with going to Airborne school? Dude your going to Airborne school not SFAS or some type of SMU selection. I suggest you find out what the requirements are for you to attend and concentrate on maxing each event to get yourself a slot. Running 5 miles is a joke in Airborne school. It is so slow that no shit my 9yr old boy can run it and not have issues. If your not use to running long distances, don't over do it. Run 3 to 5 miles every other day until you get use running. Practice pull ups and dips so your able to pull a slip with no issues. To help you get a feel for what its like to land, go outside your house and backoff from it about 8ft and then run as fast as you can into the wall.andok wrote:I'm not sure if these qualifications are for everyone but we have to run 5 miles and do a hang, I'm not sure exactly how long.

You atleast need to be able to lift your own body weight. If you cant score 70% on the Army's APFT dont even bother trying to go to Airborne school because your just going to embarrass yourself Day 1 at the PT test. Good luck dude.
