One word.... Amazing!! When leaving on the monday morning both nervous and anxious I really didn't know what to expect from what was going to happen. I honestly can say that I knew it wouldn't be easy but my expections was nothing compared to what was happening but all I can say is I've enjoyed all of it. Both my strengths and weaknesses have been tested but it's been amazing... however the most important thing is not to give up because if you don't the achievement that you feel after is something to be proud of.

You have to get up at 6am to go for a morning run along the lanes. You run for about an hour and a half.

You also do P.T durning the day. You have to do an hour run for your fitness test.

It is hard for most of people who have low level of fintess. They also try to make your P.T session enjoyable.

I found the first day easier that the second day because it was a really long day.

I feel proud of my self

We arrived at linnet clough on monday 5th october, as soon as the coach dropped us of, our experience of linnet clough began by walking 1 mile to the camp. We had to be very clean with our kit and not leave any kit hanging around, as all kit had to be in a carryier bag or your bag. Fitness was challenging and was a test about your stamina. The fitness was a test of your determination. If you ever go to linnet clough as long as you keep your head down and listen to instructions and show stamina in your fitness.

I really enjoy fitness, as well a drill. I have helped and encouraged people during fitness when struggeling, and motivated them the best i can. I have really enjoyed the entire linnet clough experiance, i think that it is a must if you are thinking of joing any of the services. If anyone is wishing to join the corse i would advise reading this as a modle of how to behave and what to expect.
