    Default what could go wrong?

    so, I've been out of the Army for 3 months now... packed on a few pounds enjoying not doing PT anymore, but the fun is over and I've started PT every morning again.

    1. The Elevation here SUCKS.... my lungs feel like they are going to explode from my chest.

    I would like to start ruck marching/running again and this is where my "what could go wrong" question comes from. Obviously marching with my weapon is now a no-go.... but having my IOTV/ruck on, is there any laws I am breaking? Mainly speaking about having my IOTV on......

    Nope, although depending on where you are, it may raise an eyebrow or two. Most of the metro area is pretty Mil friendly.

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    I live up off of 36/broadway. right over by the sportsmans warehouse off of 84th.

    Having a loaded IOTV is kind of essential, and I didn't see there being a legality issue, just wanted to check the wealth of knowledge here first.

    Nope. I run in my kit all the time. Just use some common sense and don't go running around banks, schools, liberals, etc...

    I think you are asking for problems, you will be stopped and questioned before you make the first trip around the block.
    You would draw less attention in a spandex running suit, wrist & ankle weights and a back pack.
    My T.P. wheeling and dealing feedback is here.

    Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one, and it stinks more than mine.

    Bob is merely voicing subdued fantasies.

    have you done it Bob? If not, this is not your place to give advice then.

    OP: To make it easier on you if you do get any harassment from the bicyclists, leave the mags & knives off of it.

    With everything that has happened in the past few months, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that running down the street in an urban area wearing Tactical Gear is not a very smart idea.

    Now, out there in BFE Weld County, I'm sure the livestock and other barnyard critters could care less what you wore while running down the dirt roads.
