6 miles wont be that bad, it really depends on the surface it's on.

I think the one I'll be going to is in Iowa also, i'll probably see you there.

I hope I didnt make it sound like a weekend around the camp fire. I went to this once before and believe me, I didnt expect it. Everyone has having a good ol' time shootin the shit until we all gathered at this stage where a captain let the DI dogs loose.
I'm fairly certain the ~3mi/hr(50min) rate is per MCO (I'm too lazy to look up which one). At least that's how they're supposed to be. In reality, YMMV (some hours go quicker than others, if you catch my drift). Whether it be OCS or TBS, you'll noticed that your humps are scheduled on that 3mi/hr premise.

So this weekend we had the mini-OCS in florida, it was very hard but at the same time very fun. Last friday I ran a PFT and had 15 pull ups, 90 crunches and a 27:38 minute run ( I know I suck in the run ), So coming to the mini-OCS I was not expecting to pass it simply because I didnt think I could. We were suppoust to run a PFT today, b ut they had some candidates run one on friday so of course I was one of them. I did 13 P/U 100 crunches and 25:32 run, so I improved on the run but dropped 2 P/U, and then on saturday we did a 3.5 mile hump , O-course, land NAV, Rifle class and Drill so I was very tired at the end of the day. today we did a PFT and I got 23:27 on the run 15 P/U and 110 crunches but only 100 count, but my point is I finally beat the run, not the best but I passed it after 2 days of hard work. This might not mean a lot to most of you, but to me it means a lot specially knowing I dropped 4 minutes in a week and 2 of those in 2 days. thank you to those who gave me input about how to improve my run.
PS: Mini-OCS was extreamly helpful for me, learned a lot and for me that have never been around military was a great experience. I loved the way everything was DI's, humps, land nav everything was a blast!!
