              I'm a pussy I moved my GORUCK LIGHT from 9/7 to 10/26. I psyched myself out :-(. It's gets very real when you get the email from them.

                        This was written by a friend of mine about his experience with the Goruck Challenge back in March here in DC. It's a pretty good read. http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/magazine/dont-quit-why-a-post-writer-signed-up-for-12-hours-of-hell-twice/2013/08/22/4194305c-eeed-11e2-bed3-b9b6fe264871_story.html

                                that's an outstanding set-up zee. what are your thoughts on those ropes as i've been thinking about getting a set to try-out & what is the "ROGUE" box for?

                                      think i might be wrapping some bricks soon as this is about six months out. need to start putting in road work & see if i can clean my diet up a bit.  attempted that paleo stuff & it just didn't work for me on the 1st pass.  maybe a 2nd attempt is in order. . . .
