Turns out there's a few DeFranco videos of this test online. The only difference is I'm required to start lying flat on the floor, so I don't get the advantage from starting in a sprinting position unlike his NFL hopefuls.

Well for me it will be a pay increase. But the shift roster is something I'll have to live with, plus there are a lot of pros in terms of paid leave that I won't get in too many other professions.


Having picked up some markers and running through the course a few times I'm currently beating it by 4-5 seconds. Working on my turns at each end and making a bigger drive on the last sprint will make a difference.
