"Training reportedly includes a 36-mile march in 12 hours and a five-mile run in 20 minutes in full gear."

I don’t buy the 5 miles in 20 Min. either!

[Mr. Lucky]

There are maybe, what, a handful of people in the entire world who can run a 4 minute mile under ideal conditions and the reporter claims these folks can do five 4 minute miles in succession with a full pack?

I'm not sure I buy the 5 miles in 20 minutes in full gear.

Maybe the full gear includes a bicycle.

[ameribbean expat]

Not buying that at all. 4 minute miles in full gear? Bullcrap.
