As we enter the new year I wanted to share some information about the future of the Ruck workouts occurring at The Swamp. First off don’t worry there will be Rucking going on, so take a deep breath! As more and more PAX look to enter the wonderful world of Rucking, and more importantly the world of GoRuck we need to prepare and train in different ways.
Moving forward for at least the Winter/Spring schedule Fridays at The Swamp will be listed as “Miles”. What that means is we will be getting back to the heart of what Rucking is about. We will group up, decide if we want to carry coupons, and head out. We will move at a 15 minute pace give or take a minute and knock out as many miles as we can in 45 minutes. If you want to carry a 40lb sandbag on your own, great bring it. If we want to pass around big mama (my 80lb which really weighs 94) great, if you want to work on alternative holds great, if we just want to Ruck great. The options are plentiful but this is a good way for us to prep for events.
Now there is one curveball, the last Friday of the month will be a Ruck Workout. My aim and goal is to get one of our brothers from Lake Wylie to lead these, as we don’t always have the pleasure of seeing them at GC.
So see you on Fridays, Miles and Smiles
PS – If I’m there I will be Rucking Heavy so feel free to grab the bag, log, cement pipe, water jug, stretcher, cement block, bricks or body at any time!
