On the 15th-16th November 2011, five Royal Marine Physical Training Instructors succcessfully completed all four Commando Tests, in 24 hours. The aim of the challenge was to raise money for the Royal Marines/ Royal Navy Children’s Fund and Children in Need. These normally take place over 8 days and have NEVER before been successfully completed over a 24 hour period.
The challenge consisted of the following within the 24 hours allotted:
Endurance Course: This comprises of a 4 mile march to the start of the course where timings are started. Located on Woodbury Common, the route is 2.5 miles across country and includes 5 sets of tunnels, one of which is fully submerged. Once the cross country phase is complete the individual will have to make best time over the 4 miles back to Commando Training Centre Royal Marines (CTCRM) which is immediately followed by a shoot on the range. In short, we will have 73 minutes to complete 6.5 miles over mixed terrain and carrying 21 lbs plus a rifle.
9 Mile Speed March: We will be driven to the start point from which 90 minutes will be allocated to complete 9 miles over varied terrain, again carrying 21lbs and a rifle. The test will once again finish at CTCRM.
Tarzan Assault Course: As a course initially located through a series of trees (at height) this test will stretch the individual’s confidence whilst maintaining pressure for speed over the obstacles. 13 minutes is given for this test and although short and sharp its difficulty is highly regarded as a single mistake can cost significant time. Once again conducted wearing 21 lbs of kit and a rifle.
30 Mile March: Carrying 21lbs, a rifle and safety stores for in the eventuality of a casualty, we will march 30 miles across the arduous terrain presented over Dartmoor which is renowned for its rapidly changing climate, bogs and energy sapping hills. Allocated 8 hours for the final physical test conducted wearing 21 lbs of kit and a rifle.
