Thursday Ruck



Fastest ruck in forever. I've been doing about 3 mph on both short and long days and really haven't felt I could push it more. Not anything specific but they haven't felt easy enough to try to push the pace

Today, on a Thursday no less, I felt a speed flow for the first time in forever. Nothing dramatic but 3.2- 3.4 mph  at times.

Definitely leaning into the Pose running gait mechanics helped; which I also haven't done in awhile. We'll see how it goes on Sunday but this was encouraging

Plus it was hot and it didn't bother me much ( breeze always helps)
