    Physical Shape....

    I am 6 ft tall and weigh 220 lbs. I have passed all physical exams to this point in my application process. I am what I would call average shape for a person my age and size. I can run forever, just not all that fast I suppose. Should I be worried about my physical shape ? I have lost about 20 pounds and look to lose 20 more before I start the academy. Thanks in advance...

    Dunno, IS there something you should be worried about? You say you're average shape. Average is average. You should be in good to excellent shape upon entering the academy.
    Be advised, I'm mean nasty and tired. I eat concertina wire and piss napalm and I could put a round through a fleas *** at 300 yards. So why don't you hump somebody else's leg mutt-face before I push yours in.

    According to an academy official, cadets run between 7 and 9 miles a week(about 1.5 a day). I can handle that- I may not always finish first, but I can handle that. During the physical testing, my times for the PAT were pretty much right in the middle. I will be in better shape by the time the academy starts though.

    Round is a shape..... If you are round then worry. If you aren't then you are good. Just keep yourself in shape. You never know when you are going to get into a foot pursuit. And it is much more different with your duty belt, vest, back-up guns, and patrol boots on.
