ouch. I'll be taking the elevator instead of the stairs today.
Additional level of difficulty: Fire Ants!
My hand is swollen and itchy.
I think I bear crawled right through a bunch of em.
HINT HINT to team... someone needs to do ant patrol!
Lets get Paulie bear-crawling the fields to find em!
Yes indeed. The fire ants do add a little something special to the March of Death. Thanks to the 6 am crew, we were able to locate all of the hills and we had them marked for the rest of the classes. Keep up the good work, Brad, and the rest of the 6 am group.
Seriously, we'll do a better job of trying to locate the danger zones.
With all due respect to the newbies who, by the way, are kicking ass so far this camp . . . nothing separates the vets and newbies like a good old fashioned March of Death. I first noticed this my inaugural camp and it's a truism that seems to stand the test of time.
Take heart, newbies, this will get easier (I don't think that's the right word) . . . it will get less daunting over time.
Congrats to surviving and completing even one lap this morning. It's no joke!
Fire ants also tore up my Muddy Buddy, Susanne.
Any sense of the distances we did for each of the segments? I was trying to explain it to friends and was having a hard time estimating distances.
And man, oh man, I hope Greg is right. That thing killed me.
Brandon - tough to gauge. Lunge is around 100 meters or so. Crab/Bear around 20-30 meters.
We've actually had one march that went lunges all the way around the track with pit stops of bear/crab walk.
Pssst, Greg ... when does it get easier?
Just wanted to know why I was in a bit of pain this afternoon and I'm sure tomorrow, so i calculated the distances (thanks to great satelite imagery and gps tracking tools) for our MOD today:
Lunges: 250m
Crab: 25m
Skip Run: 250m
Bear: 35m
Therefore a grand total of 560m or .35 miles of death per lap...
In true Greg fashion, I'll add my little haiku:
'Till death do us part
Lunging, crawling and dying
FitWit ain't no game!!!
Dude! Thank you, Jerome, for the actual distance calculations. I read Josh's estimate of about 100m of lunges and said, "Bull***t!" :-) My quads were on fire for THREE days.
