There's always someone dumb enough to sign up, like me, to finish last and make everyone else look good.

Do not, and I repeat, do not encourage her.

Relax. I'm not doing it. Nor am I doing a Tough Mudder or any other torturous event of the sort. (Contrary to what I might stupidly say when I have a beverage in my hand.)

Stella, DO NOT try this one. It is far too challenging. It will break both your spirit and your body. You will probably need years of therapy to get over this one.
I am sorry I even suggested this.
One more piece of advice... Don't take my advice. ;D
I really liked the simplicity of some of the old Nike ads...

no
She would need 20+ of us to sign up too! Road Trip?
Paging Travis to the white courtesy phone...
Well that would certainly change things. [thumbsup]

road trip, yes
these "races?" not no way, not no how.
cheering on stella (or any other dmfers that signed up) is a yes as well.
i'll even meet you at the finish line with a beer. (one for me, one for you)
"The GORUCK Challenge is a team event, never a race."
So no pressure!
Too bad I'm busy that day or I'd maybe consider.
I read about this event in the Washington Post the last time they did it here ( think last year in the spring)...a Post reporter followed them through the night trials and I was just struck thinking how ridiculously hard this is and how utterly harsh and dumb I would have to be to submit myself to this level of abuse.
I can see the team aspect of it all and how important it is in developing those communications abilities and problem solving and evrything...but still...
Don't forget me!

Sorry, Ryan, I forgot. I have to plan to unexpectedly leave town whenever you come. ;D
Sounds like Travis will be your GoRuck Buddy. [thumbsup]
