It begins

As promised, when the first 5 register for either T3 the pregame challenges will officially begin.

As of this morning, that number has been reached.  Let the games begin.


This will be the shortest time window of challenges before the actual event, so expect multiple challenges to be posted at the same time.  If you'd like to follow the challenges or perhaps take part in these challenges yourself, head over to the T3 Live Updates page!

Not one... but TWO T3s!

So we had a crowd of people request the original April 30th T3 get moved to April 16th.  Once that happened, another crowd suddenly came out of the woodwork saying that they wanted to register, but they could only have made it to the one on the 30th.  

Well, we've got both crowds covered, now.  

We're going to be going all out this time and we're going to host TWO T3s just weeks apart from each other!  Same place, location and time of the day.  

The importance of squats and their proper form

We're a big fan of the all-in-one Lifehacker guides that frequently get posted, and this one is no exception.  Squats are one of the most stressed-upon exercises when it comes to completing big OCR events, especially the ultra beast.  It's easy to mess them up, however.  

Fortunately for us, there's a handy little guide that takes care of that.  It's definitely worth the read!

The latest T3 has officially been announced!

It's here!  Our hallmark event is FINALLY HERE!  This time we're going back to our roots in the CLASSIC edition.  This event will have classic pricing, too!  For $39 you can embark on a 12+ hour event led by a regiment elite cadre.  Here is the rest of the info:

70 people hold the coveted rank of elite in Team Regiment. Do you have what it takes to earn your red R and join the ranks of these elite members?  Whether you think you can or cannot, you're right.

The T3 is an 12-15 hour, 15+ mile team-building ruck, run, and obstacle event that is divided into five themed laps that train, test and challenge every aspect of your mind and body. This event is designed to prepare you for big events like GORUCK Heavy, Spartan UltraBeast, World's Toughest Mudder and other similar high-caliber events out there. Think of it as a sampler dish with various elements of big events put into one big training event.  Sound like your cup of tea?  The trials you will endure are as follows:

Lap 1 - Water challenges

Lap 2 - Feats of strength

Lap 3 - Feats of endurance

Lap 4 - Feats of camaraderie

Lap 5 - Feats of intellect

 

Aspiring elites are expected to bring a backpack/ruck consisting of at least 18% body weight (we'll have a scale), a headlamp and some clothes to get wet and sandy in.  You will be provided with food and drinks after every lap is completed, but you're welcome to bring your own creature comforts with you if you so desire.

 

Those who make it to the end (people have and will quit) will receive the coveted red R patch and the rare honor that only the elite get to share in Team Regiment. Nobody has said this was easy, but everybody has said it was worth it. 


Here is the rest of what you need to know:

 

Where:  8601-8621 Aspen Ave, Orlando, FL 32817

Who: No more than 20 per class

When: 9:00am until 10:30pm or later.

Cost: $39 (Regiment Elite and T2 finishers get $5 off)

 

Making Darien a Spartan Trifecta

2015 was an incredible year.  One of the highlights of that year was our cooperation with Azn Armour and MudRunFun to help Darien, an awesome fella with cerebral palsy, through all three Spartan races to earn his trifecta!  Our team's founder came out to these events to help Darien's dream come true and filmed the entire journey. 


This is our story.

GORUCK Ingress training meetups

GORUCKxIngress Orlando is coming in April. Will you be ready? Come join Team Regiment's cross faction workout meetup at Jay Blanchard Park to complete our team's very own mission spanning over 10 portals and six miles of distance! Each portal will have a special bodyweight PT assigned to it, led by a Team Regiment Elite. Participants must bring a rucksack with around 20lbs of weight added to it. The team has two spare rucks and weight available to those who do not have one with them (first come first serve).

You can RSVP for the event here.  More meetups will be posted at our Ingress page.
