Something new for the more ACTIVE shooters

[toothandnail]

I am having a Run n Gun match at my range, Dec 1 - a little more info - OK A LOT more info  

This is a 5K or 10K Biathlon which will require a rifle and pistol. There are 5 stages with a short run between stages. 10K will run and shoot the entire course twice. Competitors will carry everything on their person from start to finish. 10K minimalist will be allowed to resupply before starting the 2nd leg, Trooper will carry everything from start to finish.
:
This is a run-what-you-brung, field-style shooting event, with 5 divisions.
:
5K Minimalist - Carry as much or as little weight as you want. Packs and belts can be removed prior to shooting a course of fire.
:
10K Minimalist - Carry as much or as little weight as you want. Packs and belts can be removed prior to shooting a course of fire. Competitors will shoot and run the course twice which means you will need double the amount of ammo. Minimalists will be able to stop at their truck for a resupply after the first leg is complete.
:
5K Trooper - Minimum of 40 lbs of gear must be on the competitor when they finish. Includes, rifle, pistol, packs, plate carriers, mags, and belts. No clothing counts toward the 40#. You may not ditch any equipment prior to shooting.

Trooper must carry all ammo for the entire 10 stages from start to finish with no re-supply.
:
PCC(Minimalist) - A pistol caliber rifle, 9mm, .40, .45 Carry as much or as little weight as you want. Packs and belts can be removed prior to shooting a course of fire. PCC will shoot the same targets as the other divisions, as in a real life scenario there will be +/- to carrying a PCC.
:
There will be pistol targets from 7-50yds possibly a few longer pistol on 18x24" plate, rifle from 50-600yds.
:
It will give participants an idea of how being hot/cold, exhausted, and challenged by the environment affects their shooting, and the effectiveness of their gear under difficult conditions. Some open field running, mostly trails in the woods, hills, creek crossings, etc. This event will take place no matter the weather conditions, so come prepared.

Everybody here THAT outa shape?

Or don't shoot a rifle?

No, just too far a drive and a broken leg to go with it. It does sound like a good time though.

OK - broken leg gets a pass.

Hope it's not too bad of a break, and heals quickly.

Thanks, I'm hoping the same thing!
