    I'm whooped!!!

    We had a structure fire last night and I'll flat out admit that I'm whooped!!! Firefighting is a young man's game!!! Being 42, out of shape, wearing full bunker gear w/scba for 3-4 hours in the middle of the night is a daunting task!!!

      Yes sir it is for the young. I made one last week and this 52 year old man gave up after 3 bottles.

          Makes ya realize the need to stay in shape. And appreciate the younger guys!! I can still get it, but not like when I was 24 . A good structure fire will definitely put the hurt on me nowadays!!

            I’m in pretty good shape and they still whip me. I feel it for a few days afterwards. Lately we’ve been burning almost every shift so I’m constantly sore lol.
