I’m in the 1,100 range, guess they didn’t get that low.

Not yet, just an interest form on how many people want to run at the academy to gauge their fitness level basically.

Are you near the top of the lists? Trying to get an idea who they sent emails to.

This is definitely a first, never heard of them doing a Pre-PAT run. I’ve heard of them doing runs for people already in the process and just wanting to get a quick 3 miler in at the academy though.
My advice on this, go once if you’re interested, but don’t be a regular to these volunteer workouts. If you’re lucky enough to get into the academy you’ll be getting all the PT you want anyway.

If it’s anything like the pre-academy volunteer runs they conduct then it doesn’t mean anything. They may just be using this as a way to get a feel for the talent pool that’s near the top of the list to gauge how many cards to send out. If a lot of people show up out there and have a hard time running 1.5 or 3 miles, whatever they end up doing then they know they may need to expand the search and send out more cards.. that would the only angle I could see. As far as it counting for you or against you, unlikely.

all it said was anyone who passed so they might have sent that to over 5k people

it says that but it also says to bring an ID with you. If it doesn’t matter why would they verify ID? Security purposes of the academy? Liability if you get hurt?

Sometimes they just like to see that you follow orders or drive with proper documentation. When I went through the process they would literally walk up and down the parking lot looking at inspection stickers, stickers on the plates and some people even had to pull their registrations out. That’s usually what they’ll do once the process gets started.. I’m not even sure I would call the voluntary pre-PT the start of the process though.. so who knows why really.

On a side note.. I don’t think you guys are going out there to run. Bring your swim trunks..

Two employees of the Massachusetts State Police are on leave and the state police are investigating a trainee at the academy sliding through a watered-down hallway like on a child's Slip 'N Slide.
