How do I improve my 1.5 mile run time? I'm currently at 14 minutes which is disgraceful. I need 10 minutes to apply. I'm coming up to the top end of the age limit for enlistment so I need to do this fast. I'm training like mad every day but my stamina is shit. Should I try taking some Winstrol or something?

run a fucking shitload faggot, is this rocket science?

Also run in sand, on trails, anything uneven and unpredictable.
>>
Run harder

Do 5K's or hill sprints or something
>>
>>31871845
Run 5 kilometres a day and visit 5K races often.
After a month of running 5Ks start running 10 kilometres a day.
That's pretty much how I do it.
Also: Stretch often both before and after running and use muscle rollers.

This but with a caveat.

Run as fast as possible up hill for a week, then when you run level you will be on easy mode.

also. If you really suck at running, and are not in a hot climate, do some BCA stax to get up to speed, or even just pop .5 bronkaid.

It WILL make you get in gear BUT you will get tolerant fast. BCA works great if you are fat on the inside and on the outside.

Those facts are probably linked. Rest.

Well I have mandatory pt tests every quarter so last quarter I did a 10min and I was ashamed so I ran at least a 5k 5 days a week for about a month or so and my pt test last week I ran a 9min. So just run alot and eat healthy and cut soda.

What the shit is a BCA Stax?

Well there's your problem. You need to follow a specific training program to drop your time. This includes rest and nutrition. There are tons of programs around that can get you four minutes faster.

If you have problems with pacing you can try using a smartyphone GPS application. I used the Adidas micoach app for a while, it has nice prebuilt training programs and it yells at you if you go too fast or too slow and it doesn't require anything other than the phone.

Ephedrine, caffeine and aspirin. Not really legal or recommended.
>>
>>31871845
Run more, farther and faster. Push yourself till 1.5 miles is a warmup

Other than that, devote a day a week to sprints and hill repeats each. Don't skimp out on distance though, you should be running almost as far as your indurance run, just way faster and with breaks
>>
Do 100 pushups, 100 sit ups, 100 bodyweight squats, and run 10 km per day.

Also, be sure not to run the air conditioning, even in the summer.

>>31871845
Read the fucking sticky

buy a gun and point it at yourself
threaten yourself to go faster or shoot
>>
>>31871845
I was a lazy fuck and I had a 14 minute 2 mile by the end of basic. It's all mental dude. It's about keeping tough and not slowing down because it sucks
>>
>>31871845
Apply for what? What requires a 10 min 1.5 mile?
>>
>>31871845
You need to push yourself as hard as you can for the 1.5mi and do this every other day until you reach your goal. You will see improvement. Also for stamina, sounds silly but work on "not thinking" about it. The more you shut your mind down and let your body work the more improvement you will make.

you'll be amazed how much faster you'll be on the day mate

I'd been running pr's of 12 minutes in training, smashed out 9:39 on the day

>>31872438
paras requires 9:40, I assume the sas probably does too
>>
>>31873328
Oh, OK. In the muhreens I ran a 20 minute 3 mile. I never know what's a good time on 1.5 or 2 mile runs.

When you run 3 you always gotta pace it so there's some gas in the tank for that last mile.
>>
bruh, get an assload of pre workout and chug a couple of ripits. A)you'll have all the energy you need B) anf the thought of ripit shits willhave you running for the john
