WARMUP: rucked over to old Kingsley
THE THANG: continued rucking around old Kingsley loop and back to bigger parking lot on far west side. We then did a small set of exercises: 10 squats, 10 curls, 10 overhead presses.

Next up was a goal of a 15 min, 1 mile time hack. Instructions were: single file line, we’d rotate the man in front to the back every .2 miles, we had to stay together within a 1-2 arm reach, only the man in front and back could talk in terms of instructions on spacing, speed, etc.

We did pretty well keeping together until the end when our spacing separated a bit to much so while we did make the time back, we didn’t complete it all together.

Quick AAR (after action report) in the parking lot on what went well / didn’t go well. Comments were: difficult to stay silent when not in the front / back, the need to ask for help when trying to keep up, need for more talking from the back.

Another set of the 3 exercises noted above. Then back to COT going the short way as we were running low on time.
MARY: not today
ANNOUNCEMENTS: check
COT: check

The Saints Go Marching 2×2, Hurrah-Hurrah

Leave a comment

WARMUP: NADA !!!
THE THANG: These saints went 2×2 as they marched up through the Kingsley Trail and back around the Soul-to-Sole kingdom. No Sasquatch sighting this time, but we did manage to try out some curls, incline merkins, dips, triceps, over the head ruck carry, low-squats, and finished things off with some Stair-Master segments. Back to COT for some Koality Time with my brothers.
