GORUCK Challenge

I think Adam is doing a great job already.
Adam, thanks for the designs so far.
Couldn't agree more. Your time and consideration is sincerely appreciated, Adam.
-
didn't want to sound offended in any kinda way Adam and o/course I'm more than happy that you're trying to do your take on the patch and that you invest a lot of time in doing so…only mentioned V.O. for the "special IH patch" (maybe another one!), since he did all the others already!
really didn't want to step on any toes there guys, sry if you thought I did! -
Where is this challenge taking place?
Great question, I am sorting it all out currently. It started out looking like Colorado, but given the high altitude here and the fact that these challenges are demanding enough without the addition of elevation. So now we are now looking at spots with a more reasonable altitude.
As someone who has always lived near sea-level, and has had to compete in Boulder and Denver a day after arriving, I think this is wise. The altitude makes breathing more difficult, if you're not used to it. I'm assuming that most of us don't have regular access to altitude simulators, either.
I would also, just to throw out my two cents, suggest avoiding areas with a lot of humidity. That could be just as debilitating, in a competition this rigorous, for anyone unaccustomed to it.

Adam is designing the patch lets move on to the next topic

Guys as far as location goes, when I say it will be somewhere we all want to hang out…trust me, y'all are gonna be stoked on the spot. I'm not trying to make this any harder on myself than it's going be already. By the way I like mild climates and sandy beaches....
Great video, thanks! And cross posting in both threads is very acceptable.

Today I found a hill. Then I ran up the hill as fast as I could for 20 seconds, I walked back down for 10 seconds and then ran back up it for 20 seconds more. I did this till I got to the top of the hill. It wasn't a huge hill and it wasn't super steep. It was kinda big and somewhat steep. I kept doing this for a total of ten times. I stopped a few times to drink some water and each time I got to the top it probably took about a minute to get back to the bottom. I was pretty tired afterwords.
Get out and do something!!!!

I'm not yet sure if I'm going to be able to make this, but I'm trying anyway
Starting a long stretch at work which means I have to transition to early AM workouts which is a bitch but life could be worse. So today I warmed up on the treadmill and then did a little kb workout with squats, pushups, swings, pullups, and squats with overhead press, 20 sec on 15 sec off, 5 sets only, cause I slept about 15 mins later than I intended to
Oh and I've switched to cold showers and drinking Budweiser, from cans -

Look what I found. Just need my damn bell now
-
Nice, fellas. I received a shipping notification from Amazon, yesterday. The first of my three kettlebells has shipped, and will be here tomorrow. Of course, it's the heaviest one. I bought them all from the same page. Oh well. Maybe just swings and cleans, for now. Lunges and squats, too.
