Please consider volunteering this Saturday!

Really in need of some aid station volunteers for the Tuscazoar Raw race this Saturday. Don't forget we do offer rave credits for volunteer hours. Let me know if you can help out for awhile on Saturday.

Hello everyone! Our sponsor, Race Brimstone, is looking for volunteers for an aide station for their Tuscazoar Raw event. The date is next Saturday and location is off Route 800 between Zoar and Dover. I’ll be out of town next Saturday and unable.
Is there anyone willing to volunteer on behalf of the IRF? Let me know if interested! The detail would include helping with hydration and food for the runners, and just being a positive encouragement.

It’s a very rewarding experience! Let me know if you’re willing and able!

Who's up for a challenging race?? Come out next weekend June 20th and see if you're tough enough for the hardest race at Camp Tuscazoar, the Tuscazoar Raw! 100k distance for those who think they are ready to embrace all the suck that Tuscazoar can throw at them. 50k if those who are tough but don't want to stay in the pain cave too long. And 25k for those who want to just dip their toes into the pain cave and get a little sample of Tuscazoar at its toughest.

Sunday mornings at the Fort are slowly becoming a tradition. We focused this morning on barbell leg work and some kettlebell RDL’s.

While not pushing SUV’s hundreds of yards to safety, Trooper Dustin lifts with the IRF! Maybe next weekend we can get both of the famous troopers together.

It was a near perfect morning to have record numbers! It was a challenging circuit as we worked through kettlebells, dumbells, rowers and bumper plates.

Special thanks to Jessie with EOG Resources for joining us and seeing what the IRF is all about! 🦅 🇺🇸

Appreciation also to Sheree and Geoff Hreha for serving breakfast for all attendees! 🍳 🥞

🏆 IRON RESISTANCE FOUNDATION ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT 🏆

Competing in the challenging 21K Spartan Beast in the Age Group Division, Brittany crossed the finish line in an impressive 3:58:43, earning:
🥇 1st Female Overall

The Cincinnati Spartan is widely known as one of the most demanding races on the Spartan circuit, featuring nearly 4,000 feet of elevation gain and 40 obstacles spread across the course.
