YHC’s first ruck Q ever. Thanks to Esso for letting me borrow his ruck. Tried to be mindful of the guys that showed up to just ruck miles here or maybe take it lighter, but still wanted to make it challenging. I also didn’t realize that Sofrito was nursing up foot injury
So we took a short loop around the Kingsley lake and did a little PT (5 merkins, 10 squats (some Bulgarian)) on a frozen bridge. Then we hoofed it back to the other Kingsley loop where I had preset 4 sandbags. PAX had a fun time, discovering that there was more than one waiting for us. I also didn’t call more than just five man makers with a ruck on and the sandbag (those are hard). It was finding and carrying the hidden kettlebells at the end that was a special delight
Made it 3 miles (which I didn’t realize was a minnow pond esque quota); now I know
Honestly, I wasn’t sure it was challenging enough, but Duck was sweating bullets at COT. Maybe that was just cause 2/1/2024 his 42nd birthday 🥳
Got in a bit of leg work and by the end most everyone was carrying upwards of 90+ pounds. Thanks Maximus and Battle Bot for letting me swipe the sandbags at Kitchen Sink yesterday

WARMUP: ran over to footloose lot for warmup and introduced first 2 q source foundations. 1. Disruption 2. Language
THE THANG: Ran to church parking lot at the bottom of the hill where we talked about foundation #3: group (which is what our little workout group is).
Crab cakes was then nice enough to relive the glory days with his infamous rugby sprints (which he led) and exercises. So an oldie but a goodie. He led this for about 10 min and then as if this was tee’d up transitioned the lead to Libbity Bibbity. YHC took the opportunity to talk about foundation #4: LDP. LDP is about great leaders developing new leaders.
LB took a few rounds, then handed off to Sprocket for the same lead on a few rounds.
YHC took the q back and led the group to every set of stairs he could find in a 1/4 mile radius, give or take, which is 3 different sets. A little bit of Mary and stretching as we waited for the 6, then headed back to COT.
MARY: Twister broke out his gas pumper.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: yes, but kept this short
COT: YHC covered foundation #5: Preparedness. Remember that we are an organization OF leaders rather than an organization WITH leaders.
