all right guys I'm on one of my last
training rucks before the big 50m Ruck
next weekend it's actually one week from
today pared everything down I'm
officially in taper mode I did 5 miles
on Monday for a 3M run on Thursday today
is Saturday 5 Mile Ruck I'm also going
to do a short easy five miles on Monday
of this week and another one on Thursday
but I'm going to hang it up get ready
for the big one on Saturday 400 p.m.
Saturday December 10th me and a very
select group of friends are going to set
off from Galloway Ohio walk 50 mil to
the north up to Sunbury Ohio where we
will end our 50-mile journey at the Ohio
fallen heroes Memorial in honor of my
friend Todd Bates if you could all do me
a favor uh keep us in your thoughts keep
us in your prayers this is going to be a
very difficult ult task it's going to
involve a lot of suffering I believe
that uh the best way to honor our
friends and their sacrifice and their
suffering is you have to put yourself
through a little bit of suffering too
I'm looking forward to this opportunity
but I'm also very aware very aware of
the challenge so I wanted to hop on real
quick say thank you all for your support
thanks for following me along with this
journey and thank you for your donation
if you're not aware I did start a
GoFundMe it's called the Todd Bates 50 m
Memorial Ruck I I believe it's going to
be open for donations up until early
January but if you could get your
donations in soon so that I can uh call
his old high school let them know how
much I have pledged for a
donation um again that's going to be it

else about this until
