  • I was asked by a couple of people who were struggling with the 1.5mile treadmill test which is part of the Pre Joining Fitness Test; how best to train for it. I put a few ideas in this video, the rest can be found in my Pass the PRMC ebook: www.seanlerwill.com/shop/pass-...

    Passed my Marines PJFT today, easy up until the last 4 min of the second run so glad I passed through! Bring on PRMC!

      Well done. I trust the PRMC training is going well?

    Great advice mate, I'll add the intervals to my program. I have found that I can run easier on a running track compared to the treadmill. It just feels like I have to run so much faster on the treadmill, no idea why! Maybe it's the 2% incline. Nearly where I need to be anyway, but I'm sure this'll finish the job!

    Mate I am confused, on the fitness PDF on the Royal Marines website it says a 3 mile run both in 1.5 increments one set at 12.30 the other one done as quickly as you can in under 10.30. Is this treadmill test done as well as that or is it a replacement to running a 3 miles outside? I have always wanted to be a Royal Marine since 13 I was in the Royal Marine cadets for a couple of years I know that is not much compared to the real thing. But now i am 18 pondering about what to do. It would be a great help if you cleared up the confusion. Also I was never good at the bleep test in high school is it hard to go from round 8 or 10 i think was my best to the maximum of 16 i believe.

      Things change, but from what I understand at the moment, the PJFT is 2 x 1.5 runs on a treadmill, the first in 12.30 (essentially a warm-up) the second a 1.5mile best effort. When serving this test is the BFT (basic fitness test) and is done outdoors in boots.

    I have my PJFT next month and I´m struggling with the second run. After my 1.5 mile in 12:30 I get tired but still cant finish my second run. I have done the interval running and have improved a lot but still struggling. I feel like I dont have much time left. Any suggestions?

      This one was a gift, made for me. The other one was made for recruiting when I was serving. There weren't many around so you may struggle to find one!
