Just signed up for the 10k. Started working out in December to get ready. Started the running training phase yesterday. Working on dry fire right now with the pistol.
We going to have an ARFCOM meet up? |

Signed up the other day. Haven't really done any training aside from the regular range so should be interesting. Maybe I should stop sitting on the couch so much.

Should be easy enough to find. |

How do the ARFCOM shirts fit size wise. I am 6'4" and currently 205. (Was 215 pounds 17 days ago). I know I will need to get a tall size, just don't know about large or XL.
What rigs are you all going to be running? What rifles and pistols? |

I am also doing the 10k. Don't have my rig yet. How much ammo is everyone carrying? I was thinking 120 rifle and 75 pistol. |

How's everyone's training going? I am still working on running. Today I did 3 minutes run, 2 walk, 5 run, 3 walk, 5 run, 3 walk, 3 run, 2 walk. It was just over 3 miles including a 5 minute warm up and cool down walk.
After I complete my 10k trainer, I am going to go out to my pasture land and throw on my gear and see how it all feels during a run. I have some nice hills I can run up and down. |

On Monday I ran 1.5 Min, walk 2 Min, x6, 5 min. warm and cool.
Have been wanting to get 'back in shape' for a while now; trying to use this to push me some. Most of my time the last few years has been dedicated to playing/watching my two kids (5yr and 1yr old). Evenings and weekends are my 'shift'. So no range time practice for me

You're definitely not in the OKC area. I am in Woodward. We have a few hills, they aren't mountains or anything.
I am also using this as motivation to get into better shape. I have went from 225 down to 195 since January. I think I am about to the end of the weight loss, I am 6'4" anyways. I am just trying to tone everything up. I am feeling better and better. I used to hate running, but now it gives me a little bit of time to myself while the wife watches the 2 year old. Will there be anything for the wife and kids at the run? I'm guessing not. They are thinking of coming with me, but might go to Stillwater and do some shopping. |

Are there any ranges around the Owasso/Tulsa area that go out to 500 yards? I know United States Shooting Academy has a 300 yard range, although it was during a class I shot at that particular area. Not sure if it's only reserved for classes.

What's the consensus on pants vs shorts for the competition? I have both, I just don't know what terrain and obstacles I will run into. Shorts will be cooler, but pants will offer more protection.
Also, if anyone wants to shoot out to 500 yards, and you don't mind a drive, let me know and I can take you out to the range here. |

I wear pants (albeit lightweight ones) there are some grassy, brushy areas that you have to trek through, nothing real major, but enough that I want some protection on these lilly white legs.

Double checked zero and started gathering gear together today. Really looking forward to this, hot weather and all.
My friends and I are heading out from Indiana early Friday. 12 hour drive for me. I emailed the organizers with a question, but haven't heard anything. Does anyone know of an alternate method to contact the organizers? The FB page was nuked, so that's out. It wasn't anything critical. Thanks |

The 10k in the heat was brutal, but it was an absolute blast.
A big thanks to the host and organizers for running such a great event. We were pleasantly surprised at how smoothly everything was ran. Especially for such a large, spread out COF. Any idea when scores/run times will be released? Due to the long drive, we had to leave early. Thanks again |
