Be The Exception is a 10 hour Mental and Physical Training Event that will forever alter your expectations of what you are capable of.
You will be pushed to your perceived limits and then you will discover how much more you are truly able to achieve. You will never look at challenges and obstacles in the same way you used to….they will now be opportunities and possibilities that you will successfully confront head on.
Ordinary people accept “good enough”. Ordinary people accept “average”. Ordinary people have dreams but they don’t have the courage to struggle, day in and day out, to realize their dreams. The choice is very simple – you can be ordinary, just like everyone else, or you can Be The Exception.

Questions from SGPT Athletes
QUESTION: This is my first day long endurance event. How do I train and prepare for something like this?
ANSWER: I would be ruck hiking (20 lbs plus) on trails and trying to get some elevation. Check out SGPT rucking tips here:
I would be training in functional fitness with a sandbag and bodyweight workouts.
I would get used to getting in the water and mud and finding that it is good for your body.
I would also get my boots broken in and build up my feet so that they dont blister as much.
