cOoTeR Posted July 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 I just tested myself for the fitness test here's where I stand. My 1.5 mile time was 14:57 my 220 was :39 my situps were :37 and my pushups were :22 I think I'll get it the requirements are, test will include: 220-yard run –must be completed in 50 seconds or less Sit-ups –25 proper form must be completed in one minute or less Push-ups –17 proper form must be completed in one minute or less 1.5 mile run –must be completed in 17 minutes and 15 seconds or less. I'll be posted in Wilcox AZ its the southeastern side of Arizona. I will be with border patrol. I was training pretty regularly until about a 2 months ago, I thought I wasn't going to get called so I slacked off. At one time I was within the graduating fitness requirements now I'm just making the entrance requirements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
