I'm currently training for the PHARE. I'm standing at 5'3 with a little bit of discouragement when it comes to the pull/push part and overall running time. I have never been a fan of running, but know I am capable. Any suggestions how to get into running?
Also I noticed your based in Surrey, by any chance do you run work shops tailored to the PHARE?
You get into running by performing shorter intervals. Running doesn't have to be all about going for distance, although it can help. But if you're looking to get into and have some consistency, then break up the runs into intervals. Having said that, intervals doesn't mean having to run high intensity every time. Interval running can still be done a low to moderate intensities.
Currently I'm not running any workshops or classes for the PARE (or police training in general), but that may change in the near future.
But I do offer private training for the PARE.If that is something you're interested in, let me know. You can always email me..
My friend. A correction to your notes. Saskatchewan police and RCMP, both use the PARE. In order to graduate from the DEPO (RCMP) your time has to come down to 4 minutes NOT 4:45. Also at the DEPO there are other physical requirements for a Cadet to graduate such as bench press and military style push ups. In the POPAT you can jump the vault any way you can as long as it is controlled.
Yes, a 4:00 time is required to graduate from Depot, I should have included that to make things clearer. In general, at least during the application process, under 4:45 is considered a pass. Once at Depot if you'll be training so often that you should be able to get under 4:00 by the time you graduate.
On the topic of Depot, I have several clients who have graduated from there (the most recent being two weeks ago). I consulted with them and the PARE is the only physical requirement that is pass/fail and needed to graduate. The other physical requirements are benchmarks to aim for, but you can't fail or be kicked out if you don't meet them.
As for Saskatchewan using the PARE, unless something has changed very recently, it appears they still use the POPAT as their physical standard. I looked up the Saskatchewan Police College website, and under their qualifications, the POPAT is listed (http://www.saskpolicecollege.ca/qualifications.html). Looking at the major municipal departments in Saskatchewan, they all list POPAT as well. Perhaps the smaller departments use the PARE?
As for jumping the vault in the POPAT, the standards I talk about are based on what's tested here in BC. It could be different in Saskatchewan.
