I recently took off a few years after college, D1. I have pr's of 14.04,3.48. My question to the cops out there is, Can you realistically train like an elite runner on a cops schedule. I know that schedules vary but any advice would help. I recently took an Police Exam and the hiring process should be starting in January. My job now 8-3.30 allows me to run but the pay is tough on our family.
That was supposed to be a question?
works great for me. i work 5 shifts, 5 days on, 4 days off. on the 2 evening shifts im able to get my runs in at between 12-2:30 pm before going in to work. on midnights i can get up and get my runs in at about 4pm. on the 4 days off i can really focus on running lots of miles or workouts. the only thing that sucks is dayshift. forget running after work because u will be drained.
good luck man.
do you get all inspired when you are chasing down a bad guy? because you know your faster so your thinking 'hehe by runnin your just playin right down my alley', or do you try and run slower as to not catch upto the badass straight away as to get more mileage in?
Lee Baca, LA County Sherrif, still runs sub 39 as a 60+ y/o.
I let him run and get winded. then i woop his candy ass.
