Rife met the Army and we thrashed them
Last Thursday Jon and Ryan went to Eastville Park to report on the free fitness event they had there, organised by LPW. They went as men, and came back as boys.
So we’ve got the be honest, the weather wasn’t looking too great when we left to go.
Rain…we are going into the rain.

But as soon as we got there the rain stopped! And we were faced with this bunch:
Yes, Rife magazine was about to do an ARMY ASSAULT COURSE. And would it get competitive? Of course not.

Nope, no competition here at all except we were fighting TO THE DEATH FOR HONOUR AND GLORY. Look at this lanky beast:
Followed by complete confusion about where to go next.

The Army guys tried to recruit us because we performed so well but we told them our loyalty lies with Rife magazine.
And once we stopped sweating we went off to try some of the other stuff on offer!

And then went back to watch some other losers who clearly weren’t up to our standard, sorry.
These guys are HARD https://t.co/EOtQSYQJ28 — Rife magazine (@rifemag) August 14, 2014
And then we found some more soldiers… #NoMessin
