America's Game

Went out this morning with an old Army buddy to do a 12-mile ruck -- to sweat it out a little bit and show our support for Army football. Light infantry standard was 12 miles in full gear in 3 hours back in our day. We came in just over at 3 hours and 5 minutes, but at 42 we're both happy with it. That over though was a sign for me: I'm breaking the under trend and taking the OVER 31.5! Man, those Army uniforms look sharp today!!!

Go Army, Beat Navy!!!

12 miles! That's great!
 
Dang, even Navy can punt and cover better than us. Just easily downed a punt inside the 5.

I remember knocking out that 12-miler at about 2 hours 30 at Air Assault School... in 1999 :rotfl:

A lot of changes in 23 years, lol. But this AllTrails app, game changer if you want to keep track of your routes and whatnot.

Very cool. I will have to get it. I plan to start hiking Kennesaw after my foot heals. I miss being outside :(
 
Blanchard and Davis, Staubach and Meyers would be ashamed of these uniforms. Army band jerseys look nice, though.

I take it back, Navy gives up a blocked punt for a TD. Army dang near screwed it up and slung the ball out of the end zone, though.
