IMPORTANT NOTES and RULES:

*BEFORE THE WORKOUT BEGINS*

Load PACK prior to workout (Males - 60lb min, Female - 30lb min) in PACK LOADING area.

A colored tag will mark your pack for easy identification mid-workout.

Each team will have a Designated Volunteer assigned to them. This volunteer will help ensure a smooth flow through the workout and answer any questions you may have during your workout.

We recommend discussing strategy for KEEPING COUNT and a gameplan for each station. Discuss strengths, weaknesses, and how to troubleshoot if someone is struggling.
