I’m Jeff from Virginia — retired Army, retired from the grind soon enough, but nowhere near retired from life. I’m an OG from the first Kanab Iron Grit, built on desert toughness and stubborn momentum. A back injury slowed my running, but it didn’t touch my drive — I’m still hammering the bike, still cutting through the water, still pushing forward. My goal for the next 12 months is simple and loud: get locked in, mission‑ready, and prove that grit doesn’t fade with age. With James, A‑A‑Ron, and Casey in my corner, I’m ready to level up and hit the next challenge head‑on.
