Well, just your luck... we have another Run 'n Gun coming up on January 18 to keep you motivated to stay fit during the holiday season!
If anyone needs a New Year ass kicking to let you know what an unfit POS you are and to help provide motivation for your health-related New Year resolutions, the Pawnee Winter Run 'n Gun is the event for you!

You make it sound hard. It's not, really. Should be a relaxing, enjoyable time for all. Think of it as a trip to the health spa with shooting.
I think you are both right. It all depends on how the competitor wishes to attempt the course. Since it is an "open" type of event each competitor is able to make the experience as easy or difficult as they desire by how they attack the course and with what equipment. At the end of the day; for me, it is a competition with myself and a way to test my gear.
