Ive been running for about three months to prepare for joining the marine corps. I would do both treadmill and outside. On a good day on the treadmill i can ran 6.8 mph for 15 mins non stop. I have never been able to do that outside ever, and even after all the training ive done, i still have some days where i cant even run a half mile outside.
Feels bad man. I feel like i cant do this sometimes.
>INB4 fat
Im not fat
>INB4 something other than usmc
To even think there would be something else out there for me is a bad joke

Why can't you run outside? What makes running outside feel any different?

I've gone from running shitty 9 min miles to 5 min miles.
For training on the treadmill it helps immensely to listen to some music, I get irritated running without music.
Also drink only water, bubbly water if you desire a texture. Water helps a ton.
Keep track of small improvements and increase the intensity of the workout every day or week. take pride in small amounts of change within your running times. Seconds add to minutes and so forth. Overall , be healthy

You know Marines do more than just running, right? I have no idea how this is supposed to prepare you for USMC and yet you won't even consider doing anything else with your life.

have you even done basic yet? just running isn't going to prepare you for it. if you meet all of the requirements just sign up now because they'll train you much better than you could ever manage on your own.

As long as you can do the following:
3 miles in under 21 minutes
40 sit ups in 2 minutes
2 pull ups
you pass. Boot camp will increase all three by the time you graduate.
