Yesterday I took the PT test for our department...not because I am planning on becoming a police officer, but because I work at a police department and if we pass the test we get an extra $100 added to our check (and you can take it twice a year). It's not like it is a big deal, but every time I take it I get really nervous. But, it's not that easy, and the women have to meet the same minimum numbers as the men. Yesterday it went pretty well. I improved in some areas over my last test, and didn't do as good on a couple things. All in all, I am grateful that I have been blessed with a strong body and the ability to even try to do these things! (And, who can complain about extra money!?!) So, here are my results:
*Vertical jump: 15 inches
*1 minute of sit-ups: 47 (All the way down on your back and touch your elbows to your knees each time.)
*Maximum push-ups: 32 (Not the girl kind! Even the girls have to do them the hard way.)
*300 meter run: 66 seconds
*1.5 mile run: 13 minutes 26 seconds
