Moleskin:

  • Great effort by the PAX today, we covered 2.6 miles today without heading over to Loch Ness.
  • YHC wanted to mix it up today, and introduce some #GoodLivin’ to the SOB PAX. YHC pinged Dora to see if we can bring some more rucks to the PAX and he obliged. The rucks were of various weights and colors (neon pick GR1) to provide the PAX the opportunity to get taste of a ruck work out.
  • I wasn’t sure how many PAX would post this AM and brought more coupons just in case but we had more than enough rucks to pass around.
  • YHC borrowed the Waterfall Relay from Cadre Daniel (F3 Linus) after participating in the Capital Ruck Tour last week in Columbia. Apparently, it took YHC a long time to explain the instructions, will do better next time.
  • Billy Goat and Gruden were getting after it on the sprints, solid work.
  • Fire Hazard, who was killing it today, asked YHC before we started if I had and Rucks coming up, funny he should ask.
  • Some PAX may have been still recovering from the F3 Golf outing yesterday, y’all were missed.
  • Dora made his first post to Stonehenge since the launch, site #Kotters and thanks for the support.
  • Fire Hazard will be signing up for GORUCK event, #FutureGRT. He poked the Q during Mary so we finished with merkins with rucks on.
  • YHC had a voice recording failure and I’m missing 1 PAX, I believe this was only his second post, #Cobains.
  • Thanks to Wild Turkey and Nard Dog for opportunity to lead and please sound off with any mumble chatter.

Fire Hazard and any others interested, don’t miss Grow Ruck 08 in late January outside of Columbia. Should be a fantastic time!
