What happens if you don't pass the run test?

That being said I don't really like how they made her run double distance everyday because that'll just wear your body out and even makes it worse.

Question - what if from day 1 you can't do the required number of push-ups ? I found something online that said "probationary", but I'm still unable to do that number. I'm 29, not overweight, just never had to do push ups before. I have to do 15 and I leave in 5 weeks. Right now I can do 3. Will they send me home on the first day ? Thanks
