I went on a 15 mile ruck this morning in preparation for my 50 miles in 20 hours or less coming up in May!
Yea... I know the data only says 14.5 miles, but it ended up being just over 15... I forgot to resume my tracking following a "poo break", this resulted in about half a mile of lost tracking!
I'm not quite at the mileage I should be at considering the event is about 2 months away, but I'm getting there!
Considering I burned through roughly 3000 calories burned I decided some junk food was in order!
Thats right... I finally got to taste that sweet sweet Szechuan Sauce that had Rick Sanchez willing to let his brain be melted!
It was pretty tasty... Not sure I would let me brain be fried just to remember how good it was, but it was worth the price of admission!
wubba lubba dub dub!!!
Riggity-riggity WRECKED, son!
That is very cool. I had to do a search to find out what rucking is. What a great way to stay in shape and be better prepared for the crazy days that are coming.
It sure is! Easier on your joints than running too, as long as you don't run with the ruck on!
damn i want some!
I THINK most mcdonalds have it now... I cautiously asked yesterday and they were very nonchalant about the fact that they had it haha
I havent been to mcdonalds in a couple years, might have to go just to try the sauce.
:D
I’ve only done a Light, and I thought THAT was fairly brutal. What kind of event do you have in May? How many have you done?
Yea the challenges are no joke! I have done 2 events so far, I did a Tough in October of 2016 and one of the Constellation events last May. Constellation was really cool and much more educational/laid back than the tough was.
This May I'll be doing the "Goruck Star Course" its 50 miles in 20 hours or less. Its their first time doing it and the "50 mile challenge" has a cool history stemming from Teddy Roosevelt and JFK.
Wow! That sounds awesome, especially when it’s rooted in history and meaning.
The constellation? Is that the one where you learn survival and navigation skills?
Yup! Constellation is the urban survival one, they also just introduced water survival and wilderness survival modules as well.
