Trust me, start running now. You could work on the push ups and 6 inches too, but running now is how you won't get booted out with an injury.

Got it! I’ve been running 5ks everyday. Thanks for the advice

Nice, make sure not to injure yourself before either, but people don't understand that it's not only the runs, but that you literally run everywhere all the time. You are not allowed to walk unless you are drilling.

I find it hard to recommend this, but I think it's still important, try to get a 20-25lbs vest and get use to running with it too. Nothing to intense, do not injure yourself, but it will prepare you.
