Didn't sleep all that well last night, between the dissipating cold and the soreness from the morning's workout already setting in it was a restless night. I really didn't want to ruck but there was no question about going. The lazier you get the easier it is to get lazy and it s a very slippery slope. so out I went.
Once I got going it wasn't too bad; all the walking around airports and europe with the pack did some good. It wasn't a 40 lbs pack but it was close :)
I decided to not stress about the time per lap but with my new iphone 6 I had a built in pedometer so I used that to keep track.
Just did 10 laps and I was lucky to get that; felt ok but slow up to lap five then speeded up a bit but also started to feel the fatigued. Though about only 8 laps but wanted to see what 10 laps gave me on the pedometer and those last two were actually the fastest.
Laps 1-5 around 8:20 to 8:10
6-8 8:10s
Lap 9 8:00
Lap 10 7:50
Total steps 14,037
Total miles 6.53
Time = 1:45
so it looks like I'm walking about 3.7 miles per hour!
that's not bad especially with a stop each lap for a 30-45 sec squat hold.
Each lap averaged 1873 steps for the various lap times. Even if it is off a bit that's not bad for a guy with a TKR and a 38 lb pack :) Next week need to add a few water bottles and get it to an even 40 lbs
Hopefull the cold, jet lag and soreness will be getting better each day :)
tomorrow: barbell military presses!
