During the swim I went an extra 180 yards on accident as I usually do extra laps on accident. lol. counting on my own is tough. The first 500 I scored a 7:55 and if counting 500 yards in reverse I scored a 7:00 using only the CSS.
10 min recovery
Pull ups 12
2 min recovery
Pushups 49
2 min recovery
Sit ups 66
10 min recovery
and the run in 15:55 (on skill mill no resistance).

This is the first time through the assessment that I followed all the correct continuous form for the calisthenics portion of the tests. Any break in form during the 2 mins and the test is over. Previously I would go for 2 mins but take breaks and do as many as I could do in 2 mins.

Previous scores;
