Thursday light and fast walk

 

Second week of no ruck thursday and, again, it was glorious. I've gone from hating thursday afternoon rucks ( just doing them out of sheer discipline) to really really enjoying this fast and light walk

After 7 hours of standing for my work it was not fun to put the extra 50 lbs on my back and walk, and although undoubtedly made me stronger I was getting very tired of loathing it. Now however I am really digging these fast and light walks and have no problem getting out the door

And fast it was. The 6th lap was just under 7 minutes and that's without really trying. I don't want to turn this into a race but I've been able to get into a great flow state easily these last two weeks

Will see if it lasts but it's still way easier to get out that door and after 8 years of twice weekly heavy rucks I think I'm ok with one heavy and one light day. In fact, I think my legs and conditioning will be better for it for sure
