Bataan Memorial Death March 35+ lb Ruck Virtual edition yesterday. I think I will primarily stick to live events in the future. Tried it but when you might get a DNF or unofficial time based on elements outside of your control it's frustrating.
I still did it and completed the run for me due to the app (1.7 ⭐ for a reason official sapp used by the race) deleting my progress and starting over at 0 after 16 miles I had the option of stopping going home and saying I couldn't do it due to technical issues but I didn't.I used the distance recorded on my watch and kept going until I reached all 26.2 miles . My 7 h 11 min time will go down as a non ranking unofficial manual entry, but I still completed it for myself. Do your best work when no one is watching when it feels like it's for nothing but it's for you.
