It was, but I was also 22-23 at the time (I managed under 11:00 4 or 5 times). One reason I don't run short distances now is so I don't have any comparisons. Some day though, I'll do it and see how bad I really am.
One big incentive was if we max'd our PT test, we were excused from most formal PT. I think I worked out much more, but I was able to sleep in. The points didn't hurt either when I went up to the promotion board.
