The magic twenty
Alright so I hit an important landmark for my Marine career today. Twenty dead-hang pull-ups. This is the magic number for Marines. It is how you get a perfect score for the PFT. (Physical Fitness Test) They are the money makers and point makers. For example, each pull-up is worth five points for a total of 100. Each crunch is a point maxing out at 100 in two minutes. An 18 minute three mile run is perfect score of 100, Minus a point each ten seconds. Six points for the minute. I run about a 22minute three mile pace. That isnt bad for a guy my size. Anyways, just hit the magic twenty for the first time ever and wanted to share. That is all.
