Day One!

Last night I did my first evaluation day. My plan is to once a week do the physical agility test that I will have to pass to get the job as a police officer. I was right about where I thought I was overall. I was 2 seconds over the sprint time and 7 minutes over the 1.5 mile run. So I have some work to do. Also I have to be able to do 25 push ups and I am about 12 on those and I have to be able to do 29 sit ups in a minute and I suck at those. I think after I lose weight though the vertical leap wont seem so impossible. It has to be 19 inches and I think I could get six maybe. So I know what I need to work on and am willing to get it done. While my times sucked I had a personal achievement. I ran 1.5 miles without stopping to rest. I thought I was going to die but now that I have done it it really helps my mental toughness. Now I just cant let myself slack. Watch out Rowlett here comes officer Russell.
