The Ruck ‘N’ Roll constants decided to sign up for an event in January. Ā This event will actually consist of 2 events starting Friday, January 18th in Atlanta and will end on Saturday evening. Ā We will begin at 9:00 pm and then the first event (Tough) will end 10-12 hours later after we have rucked 15-20 miles. Hopefully we will have a few hours to rest, eat, and get cleaned up but you never know what will happen. Ā We will then come back together at 2:00 in the afternoon to Ruck another 7-10 miles in 4-5 hours. Ā To say this is a #CSAUP event is to not give this GORUCK event enough credit.
Enough of the backstory…… since we have 14-17 hours and upwards of 30+ miles to Ruck we decided to head to South Mountain to train on some trails and get a little distance/time under our belt. Ā We rucked 10.5 miles in a little of 4 hours. Ā The weather was nice but it got breezy at times and once the sun started to drop behind the mountains you could feel the temperature drop pretty quickly. Ā We saw several deer while rucking and were even able to see Charlotte from one of the spots. Ā The good thing is we had a great time andĀ got better and stronger. Ā Some people may think rucking is stupid or don’t think it is a good workout but I know it is challenging and the fellowship is great. Ā If you want to learn more about it then let us know or meet us at LRU football stadium on a Friday. Ā No pack, no problem. Ā Come walk with us or let us know and you can borrow one.
Moleskin: Ā Aaaaaiiiiiiiiaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!
