first of all for those of u that dont no...falklands is a millitary run competition which puts the best againts the best. it involves target shooting, speed march, navigation (4hours in the middle of nowhere) and other activities.

this year we have started training early to make sure we win! tonight, we set off as a whole squadron (group) and carried our army surplus stretcher loaded with tyres and wood. we yomped about 3 miles untill we reached a clearing and done 20 press ups and sit ups. then we had the stretcher race from one end the clearin to the other, a good 800 metres at least. unfortuneatley my group,lightning flight came second with a time of 47.2 seconds, being beaten by about half a second! it was good fun and of course we all wrecked our uniform in the knee deep mud puddles on the way there and back!
