Sure, take rock climbing gear with you. But consider this :

1- You have nowhere to store it;
2- You are not going to a 9-5, Monday to Friday gig;
3- At the very least, you are stuck on base for the first 4 weekends....at least ;
4- If you do get a weekend off, you might not feel like doing something like that; and
5- You are just starting out your career. Do you realy want to increase the potential of getting hurt on your time off ? Have you considered the consequences should something happen to you ?

Just food for thought.

I have considered all of those...... except number five, that is a very good point. I would say that the obstacle course is more dangerous but at least you are "on" if anything were to happen.

not to sure? but i am swearing in on the 9th. when do you swear in ? 15th i am guessing?
 
I could not believe it when i went for my CFAT and medical to see that i was the youngest person there (being 19) ??? I thought i would be seeing alot more people fresh out of high school like myself. I guess with this economy things are changing... Good luck to all the older guys and gals!  ;)
 
Geez, why don't you hand me my walker and bifocals now ;)

Good luck to all the young'uns too ;D
 
Ok, so this is heading our way fast....and i am going to be honest in saying that i'm a little nervous now haha

Just recently quit smoking and having a bugger of a time with running and i don't want to let anyone down...but i'm going to keep on givn'er and see...

Can't wait, kind of excited TBH

im supposed to be there for 9 am on the 9th, pretty stoked.

"Aredpath" ive heard its not even worth quitting smoking before because you will end up starting again within a week aha. Just keep on the running.
 
I just wish I could get more support from my family, friends and entourage at work right now.  I can't believe all of the negative comments I'm getting from people because of my age.  I'm in the best shape of my life and I know keeping up won't be a problem.
