 People have been asking a lot of questions about the Iron Warrior and the 31.87 mile ultramarathon. They want to know, why would you do something so challenging and put yourself through something so tough? Well, we ask, why not? You see, 50 years ago, a special group of rocket science taught us what it means to be Iron Warriors. Men from the 101st Airborne Division were told to take a hill that most claimed was impossible. But they said, why not? You see, Hill 937 was no ordinary hill. In fact, the locals called the hill Dong At Via, which translates to The Crouching Beast. These Iron Warriors travel half a mile uphill against the most dug-in and fortified enemy positions in the entire Vietnam War. Our battalion took nearly 70% casualties and kept fighting. The enemy kept hitting and they kept fighting. They never quit. In fact, quite the opposite. They conquered the enemy and took the hill. So this may will honor these men for their sacrifices, their dedication to a higher calling and their service to our nation. On May 15, we will travel 31.87 miles by foot to show them that Iron sharpens iron. So where will you be?
