"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."

Hard,hot, fast ruck
My Sunday ruck will be easier because of the schedule change, however Thursdays will be tougher because of it and today was no exception.
The 44 kg swings took a nice toll on the legs and hips, in a good way, but a way nonetheless and it was a slow start.
Plus it was super hot again and I've slept like shit for the last two night. This really made the first 30 min ugly but then things relaxed once I got a good sweat going ( as it used to be when running; the first thirty minutes always sucked ) things got much easier
Even pulled off a decent last lap of 6:56 which I did not think at all I could do. So that was nice
My regular daily lap speed has increased according to my wife. Makes sense if I could pull off off a sub 7 min lap at the end of today
48 lb Ruck
6 laps
55 min last lap : 6:56
RPE 9.5
BW 173.2
BF 14.3 !!
