Good job on the 1300+.
As for the navy, I could give a damn about what they do and how they do it but I would say fitness is a personal responsibility and if you knew the test was coming everyone should be training for it. I am around SWCS and I have seen this attitude about passing the minimum gates as well, and it is troubling. Not passing the five miler is simply guys not running more than five miles and that is on them.
Guys who do the minimum will do the minimum in the team room and in their personal lives. They cannot be trusted on an ODA. Identify them and peer them out. Mediocrity is a cancer and looks real ugly after three years in a team, a few deployments, and a bunch of alcohol. There just simply isn't room to not maintain the standards.
On a final note it is your job to lead by example and put a boot on the throat of those who think its okay to go to the bars instead of the gym during the SFQC.
