Fitness test cork?

evo2000

Just wondering has anyone done the fitness test for the army down in collins barracks cork,

Wheres the mile an half run done ? is it done on flat ground or what? and are the push ups and that done before or after ?

the run is probably around the square, apparently it is the biggest square in Europe (so I'm told), so it should be dead flat. If it is ran like the normal fitness testing it will be screening, followed by push ups then sit ups and then the run.

The last time I did the fitness test in Cork it was in the park across from the barracks. There's a nice incline to it, it should sort out those who have put in the effort from those who haven't.

I've done a couple of fitness tests in Collins barracks and the mile and a half is usually in the last few years six laps of the square (you're right it is the biggest in Europe) and it's not dead flat. There's a fall in it, nothing severe just a little pull up.

As far as I can remember the majority of the run will be on the bridge. Honestly can remember what the incline was like.
