Like my RDC's always said "EVERYONE will do 50 sit ups, 50 push ups, and the mile and a half in under 12:30. EVERYONE WILL. Do you all understand?"

Well im not worried. I can do all alpha. I was just wondering if the standards were different.

The push ups always get me everything else is easy

So in bootcamp men HAVE to run 1.5 mile in 12:30 and women HAVE to run in 15:00? OR everyone has to do the male alpha time?

Because 12:30 sounds like a reach for me. I'll be in Charlie female group, and my best 1.5 mile is 15:15 so I was hoping I was good.

That's the whole point of the different standards...if you're a male of X age, you have to make the males-of-ages-X-to-Y standard. If you're a female of X age, you have to make the females-of-ages-X-to-Y standard. Your RDC can holler and make all the noise he wants for the sake of motivating you, but he can't use standards that don't apply to you.

That is good to know. I'll take the hollering long as I qualify.
