Eighteen mighty dudes measured themselves against the rigorous yardstick of the Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) @theKingdom. Welcome former FNG, now known to the Kingsmen as “Meep Meep”. #AskLooneyTunesRoadRunner chalk another successful EH to proud papa Ruby!

BOP brought a new 2019 wrinkle to the APFT.  The most improved score receives the honor of a photo holding a kick a$$ axe.  Very cool.  Way to bring the creativity BOP!

Condition

Over cast and cool.  Nice weather for a run.

Today we completed the fifth kingdom APFT.  The PAX experienced incredible improvement and I think measuring ourselves regularly helps.  T Claps to Robin Hood, who clearly has the most significant APFT improvement over the year.  I’ll attach the spreadsheet to this post so everyone can look at their scores, and check out how it is calculated.

 By the way, the interweb shows multiple versions of the APFT.  We use the old version which you can find at: http://www.apft-standards.com/files/fm21_20.pdf.  If anyone would like to discuss using a different version, please contact me through Band.  I seriously would like to discuss this with anyone who knows more about it than I do (which is almost everyone).  JR Ewing.
