Right I'm trying to pass army selection again now but since last time if let myself go a bit, just wondering if swimming as well as going running would have much difference in getting fitter or should I just stick to the running?

If you have the time - go for both.

swimming is a good low impact aerobic exercise, i used to (many years ago) swim at least once a week during the season (distance and cross country running).

I would use it as a supplement to the running, even more at the moment as its sooooooooo hot hot hot

nope swimming is good for you and will help with you fitness as well as running and cycling, how far and what time have you got to run

Hmmm limited time really but I could fit it in. Really was thinking would the swimming make that much difference?

Its a mile n half run atm I can do it in 10.43 but that's just a pass Ideally I want to get a good convincing pass

Is that a pass and are you having to do a tab as well ?

For selection its a pass yes but only just and no, no tabbing for selection just a 1.5mile run push ups and sit ups.

Best answer I can give is do as much as you can also on your training for the 1.5 remember that you also have to add the warm up run on that too so best to do longer runs maybe 2miles min. Swimming will build good core strength that will help with the sit ups and general cardio

A few weeks (4/5 now) to get ready now probably just enough time to improve enough.
