Really Nervous

Okay, so I depped in not too long ago as a Nuke and was given a date in August to ship out. Long story short I got a call today from my recruiter saying there is an opening as early as late March/early April if I wanted it and I said yes. In my mind, I have been thinking I still have a really long time to get in better physical shape because of my distant ship date, but now that's backfiring. What are some suggestions on how to kind of jump start myself into preparing for RTC? I'm over my max weight by like 5lbs, but pass taping so I'm not worried about that at this exact time. More worried about the fact I'm a terrible runner and have pretty shitty upper body strength. If I was given the PRT tomorrow I would 110% fail. I've been told that RTC will prepare me for the PRT, so is it a huge deal that I'm not too good at the physical requirements of it right now?
