"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."

Speed Ruck
Have no idea where this came from but this was possibly the fastest per lap pace I've had on a Thursday ruck.
A bit of adrenaline from some life drama got me going a bit and I'm sure that didn't hurt but it was fast!
Fifth lap equaled 7:17 and it was the last I started to slow down.
Felt great
45 lb ruck
6 laps
5th lap 7:17
52 min total time
BW 168.2
BF 12.9
W 56.2
need to drink more h20 in afternoon
Of to Portland tomorrow for the StrongEndurance seminar so I'll miss Sat and Sun training. I won't say I won't welcome some unloading :)

Hey Mark,
I started following your blog about 2 months ago as I was getting back into kettlebells. I have a couple questions: are your Rucks done on a track? Are you purposefully pushing the pace to develop cardio?
Jon
MY rucks are done at a park where I walk laps and yes it's done for cardio improvement but also to strengthen my leg after my knee replacement
