    Its a good hump, I did it heavy a couple years ago, and light last year. Didnt do it ths year, I have an injured left foot. It's pretty inspiring to seethe original vets there though. Makes you realize all of the blisters aret even a drop in the bucket compared to what these brave men went through. I do to honor them, nothing more. Try it sometime, it'sa blast just to be around everyone and feel the energy
