Cruise Control ruck

Finally! The legs were on cruise control and right from the start the ruck was on auto pilot. this is the flow state I live for and what used to come around quite often when I was an endurance state. But it comes much less often with so much heavy anaerobic work and even my endurance work is weighted.

So when my legs finally aren't ( for some reason ) feeling the last workout I did the day before it's awesome

Then, combine it with unseasonably cool morning temps and a beautiful overcast sky I was moving well, and easy, from the start

48 lb Ruck
12 laps
8 squat stretches
1:50 min
RPE 6.5
Last lap 7:15 ( and it was pretty easy )

I think the 11 min glycolytic work I did yesterday actually primed the pump a bit.
Either way it was very very nice to feel
