My New Unit: 1-41

I finally found my new home today. I was assigned to the 1st Platoon, A Company, 1st Battalion, 41st Infantry Regiment, 3rd Brigade, 1st Armored Division. As 1-41 says on their public website:
"We possess the most combat power of any ground-based maneuver unit in the Army's inventory, with 39 M1A1 tanks, 38 M2A2ODS Bradleys, 18 Infantry Squads, and 7 120mm Mortars. Our mission is to close with and destroy the enemy using fire and maneuver, while defeating all enemy attacks or counterattacks to maintain the initiative. Our battalion is combat-tested and battle-hardened, most recently from two consecutive deployments to OIF and from the multiple combat veterans leading the units."

Congrats again, Ed, you are an inspiration. I've been to MEPS and they called me to go swear in, but I feel like I'll never be in good enough shape to make it, even Army Reserve at Jackson. I'm 41 and now I can only manage 20 PU, 25 SU, 26:00 on two miles.
What was the hardest part of BCT, if you don't mind me asking?
