The fitness requirements for being on my sailing team is way more difficult than this. Plus we have to also pass a swimming test. I have to run 3 miles in under 30 minutes. Now I'm trying to do 5K in under 30 minutes (not quite there yet, but getting closer).
. . . and I'm going to be looking for summer employment . . .
