E201: Running & Gunning with WTF Biathlon

January 09, 2017

In this episode, we sit down with Dan from Waco Tactical Fitness. He shares with us what the WTF Biathlon is, how it started, and why they're a great sport for preppers and shooters. Let's be honest: preppers love their gear and guns. We buy rifles and handguns of nearly every caliber and flavor. We accumulate mag holders, holster, plate carriers, hydration backs, and tons of more gear. But it is rare we get the opportunity to test ourselves and gear. Shooters are relegated to standing in a box and shooting at a stationary paper target, in most cases. And even if we take an expensive class, truly testing our physical condition and gear is limited. So enter the biathlon: A way to test your body, shooting, and equipment.
