GoRuck One Year Anniversary, Type-2 Fun, Chest and Biceps

I texted my buddy to remind him that it was one year ago that he and I completed the GoRuck Challenge. Twelve hours and over twenty miles with fifty pound packs. Forty degree weather and rain. Carrying around boulders and sandbags along with our twenty-five pound team weight. It was what we refer to in the NOLS community as "Type-2 Fun". At the time it sucks, but looking back it is funny as hell. If you haven't done it... start training NOW!

Today's quote is from Peter Haeussler:

"Type-2 Fun – fun only in retrospect, hateful while it’s happening. Things like working out ‘till you puke, and usually ice and alpine climbing. After climbing the West Face Couloir on Huntington, Scotty and I both swore that we hated alpine climbing. The final 1,000′ was horrific – swimming up sugar snow that collapsed beneath us, roped together without protection – and took nearly as long as the initial 3,000′ from camp. On the summit, Scotty turned to me and said, in complete seriousness, 'I want my mom so bad right now.' By the time we reached Talkeetna our talk of Huntington turned to, 'Ya know, that wasn’t so bad. What should we try next time?'"
