What advice would you give me to prepare for the Infantry 2 km run at Assessment Centre?

Javine C. asked a question to David O.

I’m currently working on improving my pace and endurance and would appreciate any training advice or targets I should aim for before my assessment.

    Hello, 

    To prepare for the Infantry 2 km run:

    Aim to run 2 km as fast as you can.

    Train 3-4 times a week, mixing steady runs with sprints.

    Practice running at your target pace.

    Do leg and core strength exercises.

    Rest well and stay hydrated.

    Consistent training and practice is key. Good luck!
