I'm looking for previous years FF Challenge patches to add to my race gear. I need the 2007 and 2009 patches. I am also looking for any team patches anyone has that they would like to trade for or sell to me. Thanks and good luck to everyone for the rest of the season. I hope to see many of you in Lexington, KY tomorrow.

I am currently 47 years old and look forward to participating next year with a relay team. Does anyone have any information concerning age breakdowns, competetive team times, and any training tips.

In September , my department will be holding "physical agility" tests for all members ,for the first time in the 25 years I've been there . I am working under my 4th Chief and he is really doing the fire service some good in our service area .
We have been told to expect to be doing the FF Combat challenge evolutions ,wearing an SCBA , but we will be off air .
I am going to the annual Tennessee Ultimate Firefighter (TUFF) challenge at our State Fire training Accadamy as well in September - it is also comparable to the FF combat challenge ,with the exception that you are not on air during the evolutions . I look forward to them both , to prove to some our younger firefighters and be acknowledged that I may be an "old Dogg" as my nick name implies ,but I can still "hang" with the Big Dogs !
