tasha in uniform

[s13eater]

she seemed ok when we spoke to her earlier, she should piss the trainig with how much she has done from being 5 years old, she has'nt done much running copared with the sit ups oress ups and weights that i gave her to do, but she can go out and do 14 miles, then some uphill sprints, then she came in and did some curls then 500 sit ups, and the last couple of years i went a bit sft on her and let her get a bit slack, but she still went out and did all that about 2 months ago, she went out and beat the pt instructor over the 1 1/2 mile run the other day, 10.05 mins, not record breaking quick but not to bad.

Thing is the fitness does play apart, but it's only a part of it. Along with that is all the discipline bullshit which ranges from calling people the right names, to ensuring that your room is spot on clean and to just a change of lifestlye. Nowaday's it's a lot easier than before purely because of the governance that's in place. But it's all retrospective, kids get it a lot easier these days, so they still find it a struggle.

As long as she keeps on top of things, and don't let difficult things get to her, before she knows it training will be finished. This time for her will go very quickly.

Having done training postings a lot of new recruits aren't as fit when they report for training as they were when I joined and training has been extended to take this into account, but that's the playstation generation. You don't get beasted as much either, but then I was told that by the Sergeants that trained me told us the same thing and no doubt theirs did the same. It's a different Army to the one I joined then you didn't expect to go to war a tour of NI but that was it I've done more soldiering in the last 7 years than I did in the previous 16.
Just tell Tasha to keep her head down and work hard, whatever she does try her hardest as it's not coming top it's doing your best and improving that the DS will appreciate most, someone who is good but doesn't try never goes down well but most of all enjoy it not that that is easy at time the DS will make sure of that.
