BMF fitness testing anyone been?

I haven't done one yet. There was a session at our class last night but I bottled it and went for normal training instead. Didn't speak to anyone afterwards to see how they found it but did see them running around a massive field. Lots.

Oh deep joy! The instructors told us that it was a good idea to take part in them because you get to see how your progressing well I can already tell them that I'm a bit crap I don't need to prove it. Oh well we'll see how it goes and I'll report back whether I survive or not!

You'll be fine. Good luck!

I haven't done one yet, but have had a look at the scoring system on their webpage.

I worked out for the 1500m run - which they say for blues should be 7.40min+ that it'd take me about that to do just the 1k so about 11mins to do 1.5k. This is based on a 12 min mile (I'm usually an 11ish minute mile when I jog - I'm a plodder rather than a jogger though, and def not a 'runner')

Although I actually find the first 10 mins the worst when jogging as it takes me this long to get heartbeat/breathing regulated and get a good rythm going. Once I've done the worst, first 10 mins, I can plod along for half an hour with not much extra effort)

You sound abit like me, i can plod along for quite awhile but I am no means fast and I don't think I could manage 1500m in 7.40 eek It also takes me a while to warm up! I might not be alive at the end of it.

I haven't done one either. I want to have a few more normal BMF sessions before I try that.

There is no way I could run 1500 meters yet ?

Well i can run 10km or at least jog 10km so hoping I'll be alright!

Just realised that they run a normal session along side the fitness tests so I will probably do that instead considering its only my 3rd session!
