Roger that Ranger AbnRgr289.
Ranger RgrKing, my running schedule is as follows:
Long run day, 2 miles
Rest Day
Sprint day (sprint 1/4 mile, walk briskly 1/4 mile x6)If I fail to beat my sprint times respectively, I must repeat.
Rest day
(Repeat)
The regiment I am following calls for a second day of rest after every third interval. On the rest days I am doing Sit-Ups, Push-Ups, and Pull-Ups, as well as personal training sessions once a week for the next 5 weeks. I will increase the length and duration of my runs every 2 weeks until BCT.

Hey bud, the only time you're EVER going to run 2 miles on this journey is during your PT test's before Batt.HellOrHighWater wrote:Roger that Ranger AbnRgr289.

Your long run should be a minimum of 5 miles.
My Section Sarnt used to take us on a 10 miler around the impact area BEFORE our PT test's. That's right, the 2 mile standard just became 12 miles, you must be prepared for gut checks, because you will get them, everyday.

Hope you don't mine me not waiting till Sunday to post. I saw the assignment as a priority and had extra time to do it today.
Community college seems the route of anyone not committed in their four years of high school. The burden of my well-being has fallen upon my grandmother, something I wish to undue. Working in the best retail sales position around, at best, seems to only sustain the present, without providing a means for personal growth.
In the finest Army in the world, the desire to serve with the best is something I am naturally attracted to. Finding family, brotherhood, and trust, within men of an inviolable faith to each other whom together focus on the task at hand to seemingly defy logic and natural principles of possibility calls upon me. Many tasks which outsiders would assumingly deem impossible, together, to these men are undoubtedly attainable. Finding anyone not wanting to be a part of that seems more the impossibility.
I wish to push my limits and challenge myself, taking the noblest of paths any man could embark upon. Only death is certain, and before my time comes I hope to make a difference in a world filled with so much evil. Everyone wants to live with the opportunity and privileges that freedom provides yet so many squander at the thought of providing it. Not I, as I wish to help provide it to the many. When my service concludes, I will enjoy that which I helped provide and begin a family with a solid foundation for life forged with principles the Army and its elite Rangers have bestowed upon me.

Attention to Detail
One of the Hallmarks of a Ranger is paying attention to detail. If you don't intend to continue your education at a community college, at least use a spell check program and Gramatik.
In your last two postings I noticed the following:
"The regiment I am following" You aren't following a regiment, you are trying to be accepted by the best one. You are following a regimen.
"Hope you don't mine me not waiting till Sunday to post". The correct word is mind not mine.
"assumingly". There is no such word. Assuming is the correct usage of a word that you were trying for. BTW, Rangers won't usually use any form of the word assume because to assume makes an ASS out of you and me.
There were several English usage problems in your short paragraphs, too.
Yes, besides being a LRRP/Ranger I was a college professor. :D
