I'd like to extend my appreciation and a huge thank you to the event staff this year. I don't think things could've possibly run any more smoothly or efficiently. 80 competitors (every person that wanted to run) done around 10am Saturday. You guys are awesome.

IN!



Thank you again everyone!

Arfcomers actually venture outside? The fuck?

Thank you everyone!!!!

First time running for me and my SO!



We'll be back for more.

ETA: I ran a purple upper this year... now I have to build a new purple upper for next year!

Good job everyone.

Food was awesome.

Sponsors were great as always.

The food was unreal.

I had heard it was good... brought emergency snacks just in case... that was wildly unnecessary. The food was unfuckingbelievable.

HUUUGE thanks to the kitchen!

Here's my run

Maybe next year. Again.

chug off results

Tag for uploading of photos. Had a great time. Great food. Great people!

5th Cola on the books, for me.

15th

It looks like a To Catch a Predator convention.

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO MADE THIS POSSIBLE!

All ya'll are fabulous.

Lucky.

5th this year for me though

Greatness awaits

Congratulations, all!

That is a big difference in first and second place times.

I believe that was with a penalty as well.... but not sure

Penalties.

Stoner got a penalty on the pegboard.  I watched his range work, impressive and the chug was like what happened to that dew!

I will have some range video up soon.  I am waiting on it to process and upload to YouTube.  It is not Stoner, it is one of the lesser shooters.  LOL

Stoner missed the pegboard, but is rediculously fast...to include shooting and chugging.

MaxTheRabbit shot a no-hit and took a penalty on the range. Stoner killed his soda in about a minute and Max took maybe 5 or 6.

CW vet 4X

East 7 was easily one of the very best events I’ve been to. In addition to the awesome sponsors who give so many great prizes, a huge thanks goes out to all the organizers and the kitchen staff.  A lot of really hard work was put in by everyone, and it definitely shows. Food was on point and plentiful, and runs seemed to go very smoothly.  It was really nice to see a lot of new faces this year as well. New people help the event grow.

Overall, I’m pretty happy with my time. It was my first day run since East 1, and while I’m still fat, I have improved my overall shooting as well as my chug since then. But I’m sure like a lot of people, I find myself really wishing I hadn’t shot the one no-shoot pistol target and gotten the last half of my 6th soda. Oh well though. I’ll do what I can in between now and next event (might be classic next year) to bring those times down.

Holy cow you guys ran a lot of folks.

@twinfrost 's run

Part 1


Part 2

I agree with LocoEngineer that CWE7 ranks up there with the best of CW events I've been to for overall organization, food, etc. (6 total now), and definitely not because I finished 9th overall. A missed obstacle that I got last year and a sixth soda and I'll be a top 3 contender I think.

Lots of new faces and plenty of regulars made for a great time as well.

Thanks to the sponsors for all that they donate! As usual it is mind-blowing the amount of prizes that get doled out at the end of the event. I do like the way the prize pool has continued to evolve, which encourages people to continue to work hard and do better in future events.

Thanks to all who contributed, staffed, cook, sponsored and everyone for being great in general. It was a wonderful event and an excellent time with great people.

Had a blast spending our 10th wedding Anniversary at East 7.

I've been chasing the East Beast for several years now. Its very satisfying to get a W in VA!

More to come after unpacking and settling in.

Cola Bros best bros!

ETA:

Looks miserable.

Why would anyone do that?

Just getting home and unpacked. I am burned out. And pretty sore from whatever that atlas ball did to my chest. Hope I'm healed up quick so I can prep for Big Igloo!
Thanks to the sponsors, staff, kitchen staff, and all the great hecklers we have

Thank you staff, sponsors, and especially the kitchen crew for making Cola Warrior East 7 an amazing event. Although it was only my third cola event, it was my favorite! Everyone was very kind, the food was excellent and it was awesome hanging out with sponsor representatives. I hope more sponsors send runners to future events.

I look forward to testing out the gear I won followed by writing reviews and recommendations!

Tag for later enjoyment.

Thanks again to all the sponsors, staff, and especially the kitchen crew. Had a great time! I improved my time by ten minutes from last year, and was 29th, my youngest son was 8th in the kids course (I think , maybe 6th, I forgot ). Can't wait for next year!

My sons are already talking about the kid's course for next year. Thanks to Joe for organizing that for the kids, all of them seemed to love it.

Awesome.



Looks like it was another great event.

Congrats to all!

I want to echo this post.  Thanks to all the sponsors, the cooks, the range officals and @SaturnSport8k for MCing the entire event.

Always looks like a damn good time. One day I’ll attend

God Damn no shoots!

Could have been 6th

I shot rifle faster than Stoner, thats all that matters!

Always a great time!!

Much thanks to all those generous enough to sponsor such chaos.

Mmmmm, peeps

I guess I'm weird because I like Peeps.

Hey, I know the guy in the first pics pretty well.

stoner is an inhuman madman

And this folks, is why you do NOT get 'faced the night before your run. Especially if you are the 4th runner in the morning.

He can smoke some damn good ribs.

He can’t chug though.

Ribs are notoriously hard to chug.

Who's the pirate above the e?

I don't know any of you guys, but it puts a smile on my face to see a turnout the size of the first photo.
