THE THANG:

With 30 minutes left on the clock, we rucked back to the school for some field work.

Out:
– MOT = bear crawl / 10 ruck on merkins at each cone

Back:
– MOT = Lunge walk with ruck overhead / 25 ruck rows at each cone

Out:
– MOT = Bear crawl ruck drag / 10 BBSU at each cone

Back:

IronPax make-up day at NAFO

WARMUP: Collecting the cinderblock from behind the ROTC building
THE THANG: Beatdown with Cindy! 45 minute AMRAP to smoke your triceps and destroy your lower back with a large cinderblock.
-Lots of rifle carries, uphill, both ways. Because… who doesn’t want a large chunk of concrete over their head as their arms start to weaken?
-All Pax became penitent men with multiple reps of We’re Not Worthy.
-It wasn’t leg day but we dropped it low with some goblet squats.
-30lbs of concreted never felt so good against the back of your head on the tricep extensions.
-Barely missed the boys on the downswing with some cinderblock swings.
-Took a rest from the pain by doing LOTS of curls at the top of the parking lot.
MARY: …had a little lamb
ANNOUNCEMENTS: None
COT: caught up with #ao-varsity for announcements and prayer

The Final Countdown

The day finally arrived for our CSAUP, The FInal Countdown. The rainy weather was not ideal, but it helped keep the temperature and humidity down for ideal running conditions. 67 men participated in the event. Most groups participated in the relay. Ruckers and trail runners fought the elements and got their work done to.
Relay details:   The first Pax will run 3 miles and return to the starting point.  The 1st and 2nd Pax will run 3 miles and return to the starting point. The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd runner will run the final 3 miles.  Each route will be unique.  If you get lost, just run 3 miles and return back to the park.

Total miles:  3+3+3 = 10 F3 math   (Runner 1 – 9 miles, Runner 2 – 6 miles, Runner 3 – 3 miles)

Inspiring stuff this morning. River Rat’s 2.0s ran the course like it was a lap around the track. Lots of guys ran distances they have never run before.
We’ve got a good pool of runners for the upcoming Dam to Dam Relay.

Great job by everyone this morning!
