Stop in for a cup of coffee
When I was on the team at the PD they had a five event PT test with a one mile run...(quartly range qual also).
For twenty years four times a year between March and October we took the PT test.
The National Guard had two APFT's a year.
So with six test in a seven month period I was in decent shape.
I think health wise it has greatly benefited me as I've gotten older.
