Log PT and Run at the Ranger School’s Light Leader’s Course in a pouring rain that literally pulled the sole off of one of boots during the run. FEB 1987...yeah, it made a memory.....

The Special Operations Combat Diver Course. It usually starts with a 5 mile run at a 6-6.5 minute pace in formation while calling cadence. Then you do a ton of pull ups, push ups, and squats. It always ended with 500 four count flutter kicks. This started at 0500 and ended at 0600 and was done daily for 6 weeks. I lost 20+lbs even though I ate 5000 calories a day.

Land nav team, we had to run everywhere for 2 weeks. We could only stop to plot points. We would easily clock about 10 miles. Only good is before the actual competition we got 2 days off

Does boot camp count? :D

"Extra PT" everyday to motivate and correct. push up with toes on foot lockers, while the foot locker was on end, rifle drill with our mattresses (use the mattress instead of a rifle), mountain climbers on a 45 degree incline - facing downhill, sugar cookie time in the sand pit, and more, many more creative ways to know we effed up! Regular PT followed by 100 sit-ups (in the sand), followed by 50 pull-ups (cycle the line 50 times if you can only do 1 at a time), and the list goes on, and on, and on....

SSG Harry Outcalt the hearing test. No idea when to push and when I look around and see others they also have no idea so we couldn't do it in cadence....

M777 PT! Consisted of Running and pulling/pushing that beast 4 miles while stopping every half mile to do push ups and sit ups all in full kit! It sucked but great at the same time.
