Mixed bag FART!

Today I'm 7 months out and 132 pounds down.  I celebrated this morning by taking a physical agility test for the Cobb County, GA Sheriff's Dept. 

As PAT's go this one was fairly easy.  No push ups, no sit ups, dummy drags or mini marathons.  Basic little obstacle course with a 5' wood wall, 4' chain link fence and 42" culvert to go over, four step set of stairs, 16' of 4X4 to use as a beam and traverse.  Two sets of poles to navigate around, sandbox to jump and finally 12' or so of 42" culvert to go through then sprint to the finish.  They claim it was only 200' in total length (my ass) and gave us 70 seconds to finish. 

Short version is that while I
did not finish in the allotted time I DID FINISH clearing all the obstacles!  May have taken three tries to get over the chain link fence but I got it done!  Wound up be disqualified from the hiring process but I'll call it personal victory anyway! 

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

Good job man! Actually sounds like a lot of fun. Keep practicin and pass with flying colours. With fences I tend to just roll over them. Kinda painful getting stuck in the chest and belly, but it works.

Thanks Dre.  The jagged part of the fence was actually just below the top rail so you could not get impaled.

Gongrats Man! It is great to be able to see the positive in it. I bet it was intimidating to even attempt it. With that confidence a job is just around the corner for you.

Good Luck! I personaly counld not imagine trying to jump a fnece! Great for you for getting it done!
