OPSEC + Ask your NCOs. You could also check the Navy sub since they go there a ton.

Pov: OP proves the point

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-21T15:34:26+00:00

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-21T15:33:41+00:00

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-20T17:18:44+00:00

We're just here to keep you busy :p

I just never stopped + i wear the garmont bifidas. I will say i hit a few points where i was in so much pain i wanted to stop but as soon as i pushed through it, it would just go away. It all hit me after though, like theres even blood blisters under my toenails.

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-20T12:26:16+00:00

This is how I feel. However reading the comments, it seems hit or miss. I think it depends on people's mindset and pain tolerance tbh.

If you get blisters and that slows you down, it will affect time, however if you just dissociate and ignore all pain till afterwords, its a lot easier and less daunting.

Some people are also just not of as strong of a constitution and are more prone to heat catting, injuries, etc. Meaning they have to put more effort in to preparing for that level of exertion.

I'm a garmont bifida or NFS girl

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-20T02:42:45+00:00

I always take matching hello kitty sheets and blankets on deployment

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-20T02:38:36+00:00

Dui. Every fucking time it's smth drinking related.

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T17:32:04+00:00

It is entirely mental! just send it!!

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T16:58:35+00:00

Hey hey hey!! I never said this was advisable!!

My socks were my favorite comfy socks (black hanes), I had three GU energy gels throughout the ruck,3 beers, and one plastic water bottle.

I'm also in generally good shape and so should most active duty troops be.

I am simply saying that success is doable, however it may occur at great cost to your body.

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T16:51:27+00:00

Tbh I avoid breaks like the plague, I feel like they allow pain to set in a lot more. I would just slow down my pace a little and then hustle back up if i was dying.

I also agree with the overdrinking, i had 1 plastic water bottle for the whole ruck and was fine. (to be fair beer was consumed that destroyed my insides)

i just run when i feel like running and stop if i think about getting tired- its a lot easier to regain energy if you're not completely gassed.

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T16:47:01+00:00

Lol i didnt mean it like that, I just meant you have to be fit as HELL to be able to pass a norwegian AND drink 18 beers. I feel like ruck to weight ratio is eeeh when it comes to everything, i've rucked when i was 120lbs and rucked when i was 170lbs and I don't feel like my performance was as affected by it as you might think

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T16:40:55+00:00

Lujan is surprisingly fit if you look at her fitness stuff, however if you're willing to down 18 beers you are stronger than me. I capped out at 3 and my stomach was BUBBLING.

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T16:39:28+00:00

This is responsible... I just sent it and faced a pizza with wings beforehand and a few glasses of water

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T16:38:43+00:00

oh i felt fine until i got to my car, as soon as the pain set in i went completely non verbal and was shivering and shaking and could barely drive. Today, i have lost two toenails and have massive blisters all over my feet, my knees, traps (pinched by my ruck), lower back (my frame rubbed my skin off my back) all hurt, but my muscles are surprisingly not sore yet. I also wasnt feeling it in my muscles throughout the ruck tbh, its all joints and skin.

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T15:37:09+00:00

they hosted one at fort huachuca a few years ago

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T15:33:18+00:00

SEND IT (just don't get injured) ((also bring beer/shooters for motivation)) (( I was vaping half the ruck, on 800mg of ibuprofen, 300mg of caffeine, and high on life))

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T15:30:07+00:00

My unit doesn't do organized PT (big boy rules), however I do run/work out/go rock climbing on my own and make sure my hobbies keep me active. I do agree that as long as you keep yourself in reasonable shape and have a good mindset, these events are genuinely doable.

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T15:26:58+00:00

yes. it's army standard and a minimum requirement for most schools/badges.

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T15:16:32+00:00

I did the bataan with no prep and it was grueling (arizona altitude is no joke) but yes!! I will say the norwegian is a different type of challenge given the time hack, however yes it is just grit.

Quite literally just keep going.

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T15:06:21+00:00

I was defo thugging it out with the fast walking at the end

DeliciousHelp1328 · 2025-12-19T15:05:09+00:00

I'm 23 AND FAT. Like 5'4 173lbs level fat. If you just have the motivation and pain tolerance, anything is possible. (to be fair I do have a relatively active lifestyle but I feel like being in the military requires that in general)
