Tri-fitness helps for WA police qualification test.
Welcome back!
Hearing that the Vancouver PD is looking to hire new officers in the next few months got me motivated to sign up for the next local hosted Washington public safety evaluation test. It consisted of a written test followed by a physical test. The written was extremely easy as was the physical test. The - were the only event I didn’t get max points because the form they want requires you to completely touch the back of your head to the pad. I am still in Air Force PT mode where you just have to touch the backs of your shoulder blades/traps. So I did 50 reps but only 30 counted, lol. The run was total decimation. Out of the roughly 150 people there no one could match my triathlon fitness. The 300m sprint was the closest but the 1.5 mile run on a track left my closest competitor a good 300m behind and 3/4 of the field lapped.
I’m hoping that I can get such a position to keep funding my motivation for triathlons. Off to the gym for lifting and swimming.
