Journal aridhol's Journal: It feels like hurting

I did my CF express test this morning. For the majority of you who are not in the Canadian Forces, it's your standard-issue PT test:
  • Do a shuttle run - CD goes "beep", run to the other line. Get to the line before it goes "beep" again, then return to first line at the "beep". Every minute the time between beeps decreases. Keep running after six minutes to pass. Commonly referred to as the beep test. Status: Passed, barely.
  • Grip test. Hold a hand dynamometer and squeeze. Repeat with other hand. Beat a combined grip (both hands) of 95 pounds. Status: Passed, easily.
  • Pushups. Hands directly under shoulders, arms at 90 degrees. Push to full arm extension. Repeat without pause until reaching a count of 19. Status: Passed, easily. Had to do 20 because one didn't count (not full extension)
  • Situps. Hands touching temples, knees at 45 degrees. Pull up until elbows touch knees. Do at least 19 in one minute. Status: Passed, 30 situps.

So, in conclusion, I passed. Told myself I can't die today, 'cause it would probably piss C off if I miss my date tomorrow ;)

Unfortunately, the express test put me off my game for the math midterm, but that's another story.
