Day 10 of the 2019 gauntlet landed on the cross ruck on Good Friday.
when originally planning the event and factoring in P200 we didn’t know where we’d land but God had a plan and it worked out great to end this way!
Let me say that I was honored and blessed to see these HIMs everyday, there was encouragement, there was betterment. I saw honor and integrity from many men, the greatest growth often comes from great teachers! What a blessing!
We were honeored to host 63 PAX at 0400 for the final day and most important message of all 10 days! Total attendance for the gauntlet this year was 443 over 11 days with 18 men completing the 10 day challenge. 7 outstanding stallions even added the murph to the list!
Great work!
Here’s how the Cross Ruck went down!

HAMMER DOWN 🔨
Lot of things we put our attention towards and put our hands to the task
These last two weeks we focused on having a devo every day, hammering down spiritually.
Because out of of all thing things we put our hands to. This one matters the most
“The prophet who has a dream may relate his dream, but let him who has My word speak My word in truth. What does straw have in common with grain?” declares the LORD. “Is not My word like fire?” declares the LORD, “and like a hammer which shatters a rock?”
Jeremiah 23:28-29
