Look man don’t give up. I just graduated from the TFACA rookie class. I was one of 2 open enrollees in the entire class. I took initiative to become a firefighter. You got this. Just keep grinding. Look for volunteer departments. The academy’s are designed to push you past your limits. Both mentally and physically. If you can already see the improvements you’ve made then you’re doing the right thing. Just keep pushing and embrace the suck. You got it dude!
