T3 updates and upgrades!
Video games are fun. We know this because the regiment began as a group of gamers who wanted to make a change in their lifestyle. Using this knowledge of fun stuff, the December T3 will now feature perks that the team can unlock with burpee points. Each registrant automatically starts with 2 points, and can earn or lose more points through online pre-challenges that must be completed before their fateful trials commence on the 15th. If they work together as a team and familiarize themselves with each other's strengths and weaknesses they shall be rewarded.
That is the lesson of these kinds of events. If you put forth more than your share of the work, your team will naturally destroy their challenges. If that lesson is learned a little earlier into the game, then that's even better!
What an exciting week!
This has been a truly exciting week for our team! Without any more small talk, here is a rundown of our team's trials and endeavors:
Travis Hoard - GORUCK Selection. Endured the cold and even though he had to drop, he did what so few could even begin to imagine.
Marianne P. - Finished her half marathon at record pace. Her event of the year!
Matthew Dolitsky - Team Shark School! His team took on World's Toughest Mudder this weekend!
David Swanson - Speaking of WTM, he also finished. 17 laps in fact. That lands him at 9th overall.
Neil Murphy - 1st place overall at the Camaraderie Foundation ruck march! 12.15 miles rucked at 2:12:00.
Terry Garbis - Hog Wild 13.1 run in the wild. He got 3rd overall. This guy is a beast at consistently placing in events!
Good luck, Travis!
This weekend, regiment elite Travis Hoard will be embarking on a character-defining event known as GORUCK Selection. Selection has an average passing rate of 4% and as GORUCK says, is not for everyone. Travis was an absolute superstar during his T3 class (nicknamed the heat exhaustion class) and will be representing our small tight-knit band of crazies up in DC. Best of luck Travis!
Weekly training updates
We've got a pretty big following, mostly centered around the central Florida area. With that, we host free weekly training events (the T1) every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 5pm. Today's route is by far the most celebrated and attended route featuring an obstacle 5k that runs through a few neighborhoods. If you're interested in joining, please feel free to contact us! Below is a map of the Wednesday T1 session.
Better late than never - weekend accomplishments
Another weekend, another brag post! This weekend was an exciting time for people both off and on the podium. Regiment elite Terry Garbis placed 2nd in St. Pete over the weekend and Holly B. hit a PR at the same event. Her first 5k was run at 28:30, and she now destroyed that old number with a 23:36. Well done!
