Exo Experience Challenge

[Coopsdaddy]

I'm in for both.
I did 500 step ups with 30lbs the other day.
1000 with 45 is going to be legit.

I’m in for both and yes it will be.
Maybe not for young bucks.
I’m pretty fit but don’t do them ever.
Before the challenge a few weeks I hammered out about 400 with no weight on a box that was to tall.
About three days later I called the doc and said I found a lump in my sack.
No kidding I was freaked out a bit.
It was a varicocele.A swollen vessel.
It’s good now but go easy at first!
22 mi so far with weighted pack.

I went to the ER about a month ago for this.

No fun

Getting old sucks.

I'm definitely growing to dislike Strava. Yesterday on an all day turkey hunt it killed my phone battery. Halfway through the day/hike I paused my track, but didn't end it. Phone died, no hike shown. At least I tracked the second half with my InReach. That's probably just a lack of understanding on my part but it's still annoying.

I really don't need all of the gamified stuff on it. Literally just want to know how far I went, elevation gain/loss, and time.

Do folks really use a gear list? Completed the 50 miles this past weekend and now just realizing how big of an annoyance this gear list is going to be lol. Going to go through and weigh every little thing I use, just to never use this list again so I can complete this challenge.

I do, but that’s mostly because I got that flavor of autism where I really enjoy this sort of thing lol

I don't mind using their list to compare what they might pack to what I have and see what differences there are or things they list that I haven't thought about. I wasnt going to worry about weights of stuff. That isn't mandatory right?

I don’t think we have to submit the gear list. Just the assessment questions. I am however using their list as a baseline to create my own list that is more than just hunting.

Idk I thought it was required because of this but I haven’t submitted yet since I didn’t have that done lol.

Good catch! I hadn’t read the submission page yet. Guess I better get some work in tomorrow.

Don’t need to use their gear list format or weights, just need a gear list, can be handwritten, iPhone notes, etc etc etc

I do. Started it up a couple years ago when I was switching from base camp to camp on my back type of hunts and really trying to cut overall weight. I did end up finding it helpful to suss out what can be left behind and what would actually be worth money to upgrade or change.
