I found when training for them to go beyond whats required. Instead of wrist to knee go for midway up your forearm to knee or if you really want to push yourself elbow to knee. That way on the day if you get a prick of a PTI who judges them harshly you'll be covered.

Did 54k on the bike tonight in 1 hr 59. Bishopstown, mac room road up over windy gap back in through coachford onto the straight road and home. Happy out. Did a 14km time trial Tuesday night in 24.23, managed to take 45secs off my previous time in windier conditions.
I will get fit yet, first triathlon next weekend, should be fun!

Well after way too little training & being useless at push ups am a happy bunny!!
Part 2 - grades 3, 1 and 4 - grade 3 overall
Part 3 - grade 4
Have to say doing part 3 cross country is much harder but the new kit is much more comfortable

Well, for an oul "fat loggie" of 43, I didn't do badly in my ITs either recently.
Overall Grade 3 in Part 2, and a Grade 2 in Part 3
Still in bits today, but that will fade
The memory of having done 15 minute miles while wearing 15kg of kit will linger for
a lot longer..."Well, stone me! We've had cocaine, bribery and Arsenal scoring two goals at home. But just when you thought there were truly no surprises left in football, Vinnie Jones turns out to be an international player!" (Jimmy Greaves)!"

I put it down to a friend putting me onto an app called "My Fitness Pal", put in how much weight you want to gain/lose/maintain and track your food intake (it isn't that hard once you get used to it). I tracked it practically everyday for 40 days and did a few 4km lunch time walks.
My weight went from 80 kg to 74 kg (reducing my BMI from 26 (overweight) to 24 (normal)).
I still had way to many takeaways and sweets.

Well done lads...
managed to get my first ever grade one last year.
got tests coming up in June for this year.... deffo nowhere near grade one, so back at the start :("He is an enemy officer taken in battle and entitled to fair treatment."
"No, sir. He's a sergeant, and they don't deserve no respect at all, sir. I should know. They're cunning and artful, if they're any good. I wouldn't mind if he was an officer, sir. But sergeants are clever."
