    I'm on the fence for July not sure I want to deal with the heat. My buddy is out for BJJ Master Worlds in August, worried about injuring himself before the tournament.

    I had instructors like you at Ranger School. My impression was that they had lost their sanity years before. Unfortunately, before they could be certified and locked away in padded rooms, they insisted on trying to teach us why running long distances with rucksacks, rifles and gear was "all good." Personally, I thought it was pretty much all bad.

    EtA: Checking the map, this is 9 miles down the county road from my parent's house. Practically my backyard.

    Expect lots of sandburrs and bullnettles.

    Eta2:
    Sounds more obstacle-focused than Pawnee and higher round count too.... 125 rifle/125 pistol? That's a lot of pistol mags to carry.
    I did that one last May. Not very organized but it was during a flood season so that didn't help matters. They were real undermanned staff wise, maybe 4 RO's... total. Good folks though, I'm sure they've made improvements. Pawnee and Pecos will spoil a man b/c they run pretty smooth.

    I'm going to keep an eye on it...location would make logistics really easy for me. Might be good timing to test development towards prepping for summer run.

    I take that as a tremendous compliment, thank you.

    Well, they say, "if you don't mind, it don't matter." Unfortunately the obverse is true also.
