Correct me if i'm wrong, but dont you have to be chosen for this with an 03xx contract, like the silent drill team?

I do a lot of hill sprints and sprint repeats with a 20lb vest on, just to get used to moving with extra, fairly-unstable weight on me.
I plan on buying a pair of boots and take a long walk a couple...

Do some interval training if you want to run faster.
Hill sprints, or repeats are the best.

If you want to run faster, find the time you want to hit, break it down into miles, 800m, 400m, 200m,...

Good job though, guys. Keep it up!

I had shin splints when I started running. I ended up taking three weeks off of running, did a lot of lifting, and HIIT, and now im back to running (less frequently than I was with when I had...

Good luck, man.

Thanks for all the kind words guys!
