That's a stupidly easy test. I'm a programmer, gamer, and I have a bad back, and I can easily do that.
Dude 1.5 miles in 14 minutes is not as easy as it sounds, especially if you aren't active
A mile and a half and 14 minutes is a tiny bit faster than a brisk walk. If someone has trouble handling that pace for 14 minutes then they really should not be anywhere near a law enforcement job that requires them to be on their feet.
Just to confirm...
Is it all that's listed in 14 minutes. So, the push-ups, sit-ups and the running?
Not just running almost a kilometre in 14 minutes?
Its 1.5 miles not almost 1km.
So 2.4km.
Ah fuck, I got the conversion the wrong way round
Oh, that's a good question. I read it as the latter, but if it's the former, it would be a bit tougher. It's still not super hard, but it is tougher than I initially imagined.
