WHO:
This event is aimed at PAX training for a GORUCK Star Course event, but all PAX are welcome. Soybean will serve as QIC.

~28 mile ruck. Bruce has created a list of way points that will be given to us at STARTEX. We’ll have 11 hours to create a nav plan, navigate to each way point, post a pic on Instagram at each point, and get back.
We’ll take 5 minute breaks for every 70 minutes rucked.
WHEN:
Friday, February 1st @ 1800
We will start on time. Do not be late!
WHERE:
STARTEX/ENDEX: Benjamin Hooks Central Library on Poplar. Park in this section of the lot: https://goo.gl/maps/B8n2hN8yUnF2
