Formation runs are the bane of my existence. I can do them but I hate them. I'm going through AA in January and Im just trying to prepare in any way I can. I've even got a very up to date Air Assault Manual I've read cover to cover twice.

Formation runs are nothing like Airborne school, they're faster.

It's supposed to be a 9 minute per mile run, but at least in my class, the first mile was close to a sprint in formation, then finished up with an Airborne Shuffle.

I'd worry more about the O-Course than the runs. Try to be the first few to start the course, don't drift to the back, you'll just spend more time getting smoked between obstacles. With the runs, just keep up with the guy in front of you, you'll be fine.

I wouldn't say its too fast, if you fall out though, you fail the course
