Thanks. I figured as much, maybe I watch too many movies 😂

No idea. Is there pushing, shoving, tripping during the group runs? Serious question, I’m wondering how much tolerance there is for that sort of “victimless” horsing around.

Is cool. As mentioned I have no idea and theoretically neither should anyone else. I’m not too concerned with how much time this takes since during the time it has already taken I’ve found a job which pays me a Colonel’s salary. At most I might sign up for the reserves if my job allows me.

Thanks for your sage advice. I am not complaining at all and "deal with it" is something I am doing, I could care less how long it takes - and am in a very rewarding job, it's just a process - I assure you I understand that. Working in private sector Big 4 Consulting; specifically at...

My two cents: Every single complication basically adds more time. Haven't been living in Canada continuously for five consecutive years? Add another 3-6 months. Your spouse isn't a citizen? Add another 3-6 months. You own property overseas? Add another 3-6 months. Got into some trouble when...

Good luck on the application.

Just an update for anyone who is interested: Updated run times 1 mile: 8m46s 5k: 30m57s Weight: 214lbs Winter training has been a lot easier than training in the Pacific Rim when I made the choice / decided to sign up.

Hi, Have written my CFAT recently, and completed successfully. YOU NEED TO STUDY Don't pick up a calculator even to "validate your answers"; you're going to get frustrated when you get your study questions wrong instead of trying to work backwards and figure out where you failed You need to...

Hi there, I've lived abroad for the past 5 years (Singapore). How does this affect my application and aside from completing the data form etc, is there anything I need to provide? Proof of employment abroad? Proof of address abroad? Thanks!

Canadian media towards the CAF from what I have seen 1. Always focusing on procurement / equipment / recruitment issues (negative) 2. Scandals are front and center when there are plenty of other scandals within other levels of government (negative) 3. Remembrance Day will showcase some...

Thanks! Yeah, I've been watching the news, hope it gets better soon. I'm actually training out in the Pacific Rim, 30 - 36 degrees every day with over 70% humidity. Same with the gym workouts, gym has a galvanized steel roof and no air conditioning.

Hi, I've noticed some of the information that I completed in the online application has disappeared when I click "view" to see the data I inputted. Specifically: 1. Trades / Jobs I'm interested in 2. Address history I know I completed them, and it wouldn't have let me submit the application...

Hi, What do you mean by "foreign implication" ? Thanks

Thanks for the tips, appreciated. To clarify, I run every day usually 2 - 5k, but with varying pace.

Thanks to all for the responses. Currently I run a 1 - 3 miles a day no matter what, every day without fail. My target for Vo2max is upwards of 40, but currently I'm in the thirties. I'm tracking around 10 min/mile, with a goal of around 9 min/mile before I enter. I haven't even completed...

Hi, What distances are covered in standard jogging / running daily and at what pace? I see a lot of conflicting answers. 1. Daily runs - Distance ? 2. Any long distance runs? Distance ? How often ? 3. Are there rest periods during the longer runs? - How long ? Thanks I searched for...

Uh-oh. I've been getting the high and tight for years. lol... It scares me to go back to a normal cut. haha

Yeah. What I did was: 1) I’ve had Google Location tracking on since 2007 or whenever it was introduced. It tracks your every movement in a timeline down to 3m of location accuracy, photos, method of transport etc. I extracted an XML file of that and generated visual representation on a map...

So if anyone is curious. I spoke to the recruiter and he told me to give it the best effort and create a table or spreadsheet and bring it along with me. Hope it helps.

Hi there, I'm currently completing the application and basically due to my previous employment I've been living overseas and have had well in excess of 75+ business and leisure trips in the last 10 years, to well over 20 countries. For the life of me I can't remember the exact dates, but I can...
