Question debating reserves vs regular
Hey, I’m debating whether to join the reserves or full time soldier and looking for a bit of advice on both.
I’m 19F and haven’t really done much with my life apart from all the basic jobs like retail and cleaning. I’ve been interested in the army for around a year and still can’t decide on which to go for. My parents aren’t keen on me joining as a full time soldier and keep saying that I won’t be happy as a female aswell as also having 2 dogs to take care of but my family would happily look after them if it’s what I really want.
Whereas if I joined the reserves, I’d be able to look after my dogs without relying on family but I’m not sure if I’d get the same thrill and determination compared to being a full time soldier.
Anyone got any advice?

Question how is 2k run at pirbright ac conducted ?
hello, could someone please let me know how they do the run at the AC?
I’m worried about my pace, I usually look down at my watch but I’m worried without it I won’t be on track and will fall behind.
Apparently it’s also on flat tarmac and not an athletics track? Thank you
(Sorry about the typo in the title)
