      I paid for 2day shipping on Thursday but they didn't ship it out til Friday so they upgraded me to Next Day Saturday shipping. Great customer service as well

        Awesome. Glad to hear you had a great experience. It never ceases to amaze me how many companies neglect the importance of customer service. Even if you never buy another product from them again, you have gone on a forum and shared your positive experience with hundreds of other members.

        Now comes the hard part… The training.

            Hey guys,

            I'm personally loving this discussion. Can we move the workout related conversation to the "In Fitness and Health" thread and keep this one related directly the IronHeart Goruck Challenge?

            The two threads will obviously be related in spirit, it's just that there is a lot of good info in this thread and it really belongs over there. Please feel free to cross post with your journey to this event

                Chris knows what's going on. Hopefully he will join us. I know he mentioned on the fitness thread he was looking to getting into shape (though he didn't appear to be out of shape to me)

                I just went through this thread, and the fitness info and the Goruck info is so tightly weaved in with each other that I can't split the thread. Argh, you make a mods job hard 😉

                Btw, if you sign up for a Goruck event, you get a discount on purchases. You might want to take that into consideration if you're looking to buy a pack

                There's a Goruck Challenge in a couple weekends not far from me. Tempted to sign up for it but there's so much going on at home with the new dog

                  Since we are looking at a date in 2014 and the dates are not yet posted, I have asked GORUCK to provide me with a discount code that anyone who wishes to purchase a pack can use. They said they would sort it out and get back to me. As soon as I have the code, participants can get it from me.

                      He has been speaking with GORUCK we are going to hopefully have  some special things made for us. It you have any ideas about special velcro patches please let me know they are one of the things I would like to get done.

                              This idea occurred to me, as well. Maybe order some blank Ts from G, and have some custom screen-printing done?

                              I like this idea, too. If a custom patch is made (which would be badass), it definitely needs equal representation from IH and GORUCK.

                                        GR2 is a great bag but definitely not for the challenge.
