Hi, that's great news. Regarding fitness, the fitter you are the easier everything else will be. You don't need to be superman and it's really important to build fitness up as you could cause yourself an injury. You were fit enough to pass the fitness assessment at the Assessment centre so build on that fitness. Everything you do at Winchester will start relatively gently to build you up (again, to prevent injury) but if you are one of the fitter ones in your platoon you can help others and everything in training becomes easier as you don't have to dread every PT session. Good luck and enjoy it!!!
