"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."

45 lb ruck hot and fast
Summer is completely here and the ruck at 1 pm was at 88 deg but I felt pretty good about it. Acceptance is the first key to heat tolerance training I think. The more you fight it the hotter it seems but I think I was just in a good mood.
Easy day just two clients, everyone else cancelled. Got new tires on the Mustang and did some things I rarely get to do during the week so when i got to the ruck I was actually eager to go.
I wore the Danner's with XOSKIN crew socks and made sure to lace the boots lightly. That seemed help.
I didn't time laps but I was moving and things felt pretty loose and fast. My lunges for a change were the bodypart being challenged
I did stop every couple laps as the fast pace was tightening my calves up but they released quickly. finished 10 min early too so I know it was fast
Last lap the right foot at mid sole started to ache a bit it felt like the pace not the mechanics but it's fine now
Good one
