GORUCK Challenge
-
-
I'm in! This will be the hardest and yet most rewarding thing I have possibly ever done. I want to show my son, though he won't be old enough to remember, that anything can be accomplished with hard work. Training/getting myself into shape will be very difficult with a newborn but I am going to give it my best shot!
IH all the way!
BTW, we gonna do this in our jeans?? haha

Pam and I won't be able to do it guys. Financially and physically we could not manage 2 trips to the US and 2 Goruck challenges, and as I have to be at the HWDC event, sorry but we can't do it.

Jeff, for those of us that down own a Goruck piece, do we need to order one and if so, what size?
1 a goruck brand bag is not a requirement
2 the gr1 is the ideal bag for the challenge
3 if you buy an event pass they give you a discount on gear -

sounds like fun & a year to get ready for it gives almost anyone more than enough time. i have been meaning to sign up for one for the last couple of years, so i'm glad you are putting this together D-triple.
I'm all in.
oh & as motivation i'm pushing 40 fast & figure I want to do one of these as soon as possible before my mind is willing & my body isn't. i also love to set goals with tangiable rewards, just how I'm wired.
2014 can't get here soon enough

Jaco is just a smart dude (& one of my favorites), all the info is on the Goruck website.
–-no sarcasim implied or directed at anyone--
No, i don't want to re-live Paris Island (that sh!t was for the birds), but i'm old enough to know better & young enough to not give a f^ck & do stupid stuff . . . this seems pretty high on my list of stupid things to sign up for.
& 30 people isn't that easy to come up with, though i'm sure mega could organize & get it going . . .

This is a general rule of thumb, particularly the part about Jaco

You & D666 are two of my favorite big men on the forum. this is going to be fun.
Had to get in on this. I think I can fireman carry up to 275 or so . . . anything more & I will probably sh!t myself. Please keep in mind, someone will probably have to carry your big a$$ & I don't think you get to choose who carries you . . .
