    Does anyone know any running cadences that are in use in the Irish Defense Forces?
    Do they cadence at all?

    I'm quite partial to the odd cadence, the bawdier the better, getting some1 grinning when all they want to do is throw up has its merits . But most of them are just rejigged versions of the yank ones. Bar the odd localized inventive one.

    Theres no real cadence apart from the pti/ptl occaisionally bellowing

    "CLAY,DOS,CLAY,DOS,CLAY,DOS,CLAY" to set the pace of the run ahhhhh the memories :D

    I'm pretty sure we are talking about the same song.

    I'm not familiar with the song, but some of the people that were in my unit wouldn't consider that punishment.

    It wasn't punishment. Its actually a very good cadence, and everyone knows the words... and it isn't in a7 territory.
