Firefighting is all abt that.Wearing a total of 60+lbs gear(depending on where u work) and do cross train.

    Gd luck with ur career ahead of u.Firefighting is rewarding and fun.
    lol That shouldn't be too hard. I was in Iraq at the beginning of the war. I'm use to running around with a lot of gear in really high temperatures. On top of that I was a welder at the time working with heat and metal all day.
