Ruck Olympics on the Parallel Beams

YHC and See Through show up at the 2 year Anniversary of F3_ENC…mingling in the crowd before the beat down hosted by Skipper and Hometown…and there comes THE Mellow Johnny, never short on words and asked us to CoQ this weeks #Ruckolution. Well needless to say, we couldn’t say no simply because we had Bono, Goose and Abu waiting to see our response. In MJ style we offered up EC at 0400 and weren’t disappointed with the numbers of 6 PAX…we rucked 3.4 miles hammering out an average pace of 15.5 minute miles. Clock stuck 0500 and the PAX grew to a total of 10.

WARM UPS: 0500 to 0510

• Good Mornings in cadence x 20 with Rucks
• Don Quixotes in cadence x 20 with Rucks
• OWL (Overhead Walking Lunges) with Ruck overhead to shelter OYO
• DIPS with Rucks on chest x 50 OYO
• OWL with Ruck overhead to tree line
• Ruck Merkins x 50 OYO

THE THANG: 0510 to 0615

• 5 PAX begin with Team Coupons; while the other 5 PAX rucked with the shovel flag. The team coups consisted of (1) 4x4x12′ beam with 2 PAX, (1) 4x4x8′ beam with 2 PAX with the parallel beams connected by a 5′ rope to keep parallel beams together and (1) 60 lb. sand bag. PAX rotated every 3 minutes over 3.3 miles with an average pace of 23.3 minute miles.

PRAYER REQUEST:

• Tonka has a close friend David out of treatment for 6 months and going through divorce. Pray for him, his family and children
• Matlock’s sister health issues.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

• MJ offered Deck of Death if no body wants to Q the last #Ruckolution next Monday.
• Past Due along with Bono made a deal that MJ will Q #BuildUp on this Wednesday and then Past Due will Q next Monday.

MOLESKIN:

I have to admit that YHC and See Through have been a little worried about the Grow Ruck Tough Challenge at Fort Macon on March 11th. We continue to be amazed about how much we don’t know or how best to prepare, but will say the ENC Ruck Nation PAX continue to share their past experiences whether good or bad. Don’t know that it really matters because it will be here in 2 weeks. It’s hard to believe though that our last Ruckolution training is next Monday. Appreciate the F3_ENC PAX across all 3 F’s.  Remember Ruck Olympics on the Parallel Beams are back! Fertile and See Through out…see you at Fort Macon boys!
