If its similar to the army stuff I did then I would compare it to fartlek training but on a sort of assualt course.
So short periods of really intense running then cool down (i use the term loosly) in which your jogging/fast walking with added obstacles such as walls/balance beams (aka upside down benches)etc.
Sometimes in a gym in pt kit sometimes outside in full CEFO depends what mood your PTI is in.
Its proper funDT_Xtremez_14:! Much better than just circuits or such like.
So we do battle PT here now, it's one of our compulsory PT sessions we have to do.
Any advice for someone who is only just getting used to running in boots (new ones at that!) would be welcome.
Cheers boys and girls.
Boots: I dont think it's done any more, but running in boots was the norm when ......blah blah - you get the picture.
Anyhow. Leather is like skin. Its fits best to what it fits around. get them good and wet and afford yourself a few miles walking around, with the occasional jog. Warm the buggers up.
When you have done with that, swamp them with love, care and bucketloads of polish or even saddle soap, even before they are dry. NEVER dry them by heat, or you will have to start all over again or they will just rupture on you. Natural dry, always stuffed with newspapers (I find the Guardian most rewarding).
After this, your boots will love you for years, and vice versa.
When you eventually come to trade them in, you will probably cry.
