It is always good to be multi-faceted and I always enjoy the challenge of Qing somewhere I may not always be familiar with. It is no secret that I am probably classified as a Runner and not a Rucker, but I can Q a good one every now and then. Unfortunately, I am not always familiar with some of the terminology and correct protocols, but luckily had some veterans there to keep me straight. The workout went like this:
July 25th is 6 months until Christmas, and today being the 21st, I figured that this would be a great plan to spread some holiday cheer. Today we would celebrate the 12 Days of Christmas, but also our good buddy Chimi posted, so he was the gift that kept on giving! See, anytime someone mentioned Chimi, we had to stop and do 10 merkins. You could say his real name or Chimichanga, but just saying Chimi meant 10 merkins. This was a nice twist and as always he was a good sport about it. We rucked around the park stopping every few minutes to add a day. The reps correlated with the day, and as we added a day, we always went back to Day 1. exercises we as follows:
Day 1- 1 arm or staggered merkin
Day 2- Burpees
Day 3- Shoulder Tap Merkins
Day 4- Lunges
Day 5- Squats
Day 6- Joe Warners
Day 7- Squat Thrusers
Day 8- Chest Press
Day 9- Ruck Swings
Day 10- Prisoner Squats
Day 11- Cleve Climbers
Day 12- Beast Toe Taps
Lots of good mumblechatter for the days and the PAX pushed through and we all finished the 12 days and back to the flag.

I was really looking forward to this Q and thankful for Skynard to ask. Rucking definitely presents a different challenge for me, but I am always willing to do it. One of these days I am going to do a GoRuck event! Glad Chimi came out and keep his family if our thoughts and prayers as they are trying to sell their house and start the next chapter of their lives in their new family home.
