Going to my first SF recruiting brief and SFRE event in December.
I have mostly been focusing on getting my run and ruck times down, specifically my rucking without running because I was rucking with a run-walk-run method every time and ended up hurting my back, but took my time to heal and learned my lesson to only ruck run when necessary.
2 mile run: 13:29, 6:45 min/mi pace
5 mile run: 38:10, 7:37 min/mi pace
6 mile ruck: 1:21:39, 13:37 min/mile pace only fast walking
10 mile ruck: 2:13:32, 13:20 min/mile pace only fast walking
Rucks with Alice pack @ 55# dry. Never done any rucks with a sledge hammer but plan to pick up an 8lb one and use it for my training after gaining the tip from this forum.

Good work man, I’m chasing down those numbers as well. The hammer doesn’t really slow you down that much, just something you have to get use to as its harder to swing both arms.
