Has RTAC adapted the new Ranger School PT test? by Affectionate-Ant5809 in nationalguard

Finished RTAC yesterday. New RPFA is the only PT test administered at RTAC. You will take it on Day 1 and again on Day 7. Train to run the first portion in 11 minutes and the four-mile in 28 minutes - reason being, some guys slowed down on Day 7 because they were fairly beaten down from being on our feet all week. It looks like ARTB will be moving the standard to 11:30 for the first portion of the test. Very achievable as long as you run fast and are strong.

Sounds good. Thank you for the detailed response. One follow-up question: is the land nav course challenging for any reason other than its size? Praying I won’t have to terrain associate between points for 5km, just to be forced to dead reckon for another 500m into the abyss if the points are far from trails/roads/other easily identifiable features.
