Wait…you want me to Q a ruck workout?

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Made our way to the upper parking lot for SSH, Mountain Climbers, Plank work, Windmills, and more SSH without ruck

THE THANG: FYI…this was my VQ (ruck)! I felt WAY outside my comfort zone, which is where we as leaders are meant to be…but like most any challenge we face, the way through it is my taking the next step.

Remaining work with ruck – relocated to the sidewalk just outside the entrance to the BMX track and started at the first light pole with 10 squats, lunge walk to next pole for merkins, reverse lunge walk to the next pole for curls, lunge walk to the next pole for thrusters.  Now at the bottom of the hill, we discussed my #OneWord for 2023 of #Intentionality and proceeded to use the hill for a Jacobs Ladder – starting with 10 burpees at the top and 1 big boy sit-up with the ruck overhead at the bottom.  The group completed this with just enough time to make our way back to COT
MARY: nothing other than the big boys
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Mens shelter, blood drive, d2d fundraising, newsletter

Pathfinder but on a bike

Leave a comment

Skate or die had to last minute bail on running. My ankle was not 100%, so I brought a mountain bike and road the trails solo. explored some new routes and enjoyed the quiet.

Trail run at the Whitewater Center

Leave a comment

The kids are off school and we need to get on some trails. The Nash van is making a trip to the Whitewater Center on Thursday morning to run some trails. Leo and Half Tights are leading a group on a 9 mile route(same one as the CRC Trail race) and I will be leading a shorter 5-ish mile route. I have room in my van and a parking pass so plan to hop in and ride the big black bus up there. Meet in Kingsley at 0745. Message me for details.
