They expect 30+ yo NSmen to run like a marathoner. Hello, 30yo should not run so much liao. the knees usually start to deteriorate around 30yo. some more NSmen have full time job where got so much time and stamina to train

Mindef also don't allow people to swim instead of run. swimming 1km freestyle nonstop is easier than running 2.4km and no need to sweat. running any dog also can do that. ony difference is how fast or slow. swimming is a survival skill and very techincal

It is unfair for us who serve our NS and completed countless of IPPT, to suddenly have IPPT cancelled.

Sorry bro, pls do your best!

2.4km is not a marathon. at 30 + to pass is so easy . abit of effort nia.

my timing always more than 14mins even on the treadmill

if run on the track under hot sun maybe 18mins lol. run 2 laps then start to jog then start to walk. but i can swim 20 laps freestyle non stop

seriously how many sinkie males can swim 20laps freestyle non-stop with each lap less than 1.30min? I see so many people cannot even swim proper breaststroke during Ns.

Ippt most useful and important aspect of NS. In fact should extend ippt to girls as well so they can run faster and not be a burden during wartime.

but you dont swim in jungle mah. even ndu also need to walk on the ground. if you have already train yourself physically, then will not have injury so fast also.

running away to escape harm from disaster also important.
