Preblast: The Irish Mutha Ruck

Preblast: The Irish Mutha Ruck

The Irish – Friday, March 16, 2018 (St Patrick’s Day Eve)

Mutha – ship … the Muthaship.

Ruck – I refer to it as “the art of putting on 30 pounds to lose 30 pounds”.

This is a night-time ruck to the Muthaship on Friday, March 16, 2018 (St Patrick’s Day Eve).  The ruck will encompass a 15 mile round trip starting at Providence Day School to the Muthaship and back.  The route will take us up Providence Rd to Thompson Park/The Captain Jack Statue where we’ll take 4^th street up to Caldwell.  We’ll return on the same route.  As these are busy streets we will be utilizing sidewalks and pax should wear reflective gear.  Lights are also encouraged.

Creative coupons are welcome, but keep in mind we’ll be walking into Uptown Charlotte on a Friday night.  Keep it discrete.

We will climb to the top of the Muthaship.  Coupon creativity is key here, certain coupons can be emptied/consumed at this point to lighten the load going home.

Launch time scheduled for: 20:00, expect 5 – 6 hours total.  Tell the M’s it will be a late night out with the boys.  Your stumbling home is a result of rucking too much and not drinking too much.

What you need:

• A ruck
• Some weight
• Water to stay hydrated
• OPTIONAL: Creative coupon.  Coupons should be protable and can be shared with other ruckers.  If contents are consumed/dumped at the top of the Muthaship, no one will know.

HC by following the link here and signing up.  All regions and all levels of ruck experience are welcome.

If you’re doing Pathfinder training this counts as the overnight ruck challenge.  Total distance is 15 miles round-trip.
