Look for us in Hawaii!
Team regiment will be flying their banners high at all three of the trifecta events this weekend. If you see one of them, give them a cheer! AROOHA!
An even Spartan 300
It's hard to wrangle together a group of people who think the idea of 10+ hour ruck marches or 20+ mile running events is fun, so it should be worth mentioning that our tightly-knit group of Facebook'ers have reached a milestone of 300 members now! Though we pride ourselves on being a small and almost exclusive group of crazies, we're always willing to bring in more people to our ranks!
Want to join the group? Have at it! We'll hook you up with the invite.

Fuego Y Agua, ran by two elites
Regiment elites Haidar and Deater took on the Fuego Y Agua 100k ultramarathon back in February. After half a year, Haidar managed to get his experience into words in a brief but awesome review of his experiences out in Central America! If you have any intention of stepping up your runs or ruck training to the next level, go ahead and give it a read!
Introducing team regiment affiliates!
The good news keeps rollin' in - this time we got some huge news for you. You may notice a new tab on the website. Which means...
We are an official GORUCK affiliate.
Let that sink in for a sec.
Yep. That so just happened. So what does it mean? It means that our partnership with them will generate more traffic to our team to help fund our crazy outings and elites. This means more notoriety and street cred to our team, which paves the way for more amazing things to happen in the future. This is only the beginning, and awesome people like you are the ones to thank for this amazing journey that our team has so far been a passenger to. If you would like to purchase any events or gear (do it in July, it's 50% off!), you have full permission to use our affiliate link.

Some pretty high level events are mere months away, and as the article states you should be primarily focused on your training and not what you plan on bringing. People around the nation are training hard for these events, and we'd like to feature a group out of Marion, North Carolina. These folks are called the 828 boot camp, and their training sessions are right in line with ours!

UB Updates
Greetings! I've got some questions messaged to me about the UB article, so I changed the text around in some areas to clarify a few things and add to the things that were lacking. Give it a read here, and keep the information coming!
Just your friendly reminder
The Spartan Ultrabeast is 76 days away. If you plan on attending this event, please prepare accordingly. If web traffic holds any truth you have no doubt visited our articles section and seen how to prepare for the ultrabeast. Nevertheless, keep your eyes peeled for future updates to the article since it will constantly get updated by other athletes!
And of course, for a more personal and less technical account of the event, there is this one to read as well.
They did it! Congratulations to our new elites!
This T3 was nothing short of inspirational and amazing. They rucked, ran, got wet and did PT until their muscles could not budge any longer. Of the original 14 who registered, 6 DNS (Did not show). Of the 8 who started the class, six made it until the very end and earned their red R patch! Those who DNF were for medical reasons (plantar fasciitis to the point of collapse, and heat exhaustion to the point of uncontrollable vomiting). Tears were even shed at the end as 14 hours of being put through the ringer were vindicated in the most liberating moment of victory! Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you our new six elites:
