WARMUP:

THE THANG:
HIM’s set out on a ruck with normal packs but we also brought along 5 coupons (20,30,40,60,80 lbs). With 7 men we rotated coupons every 0.25 mile. 5 guys working with coupons and two guys with just their rucks. We covered 2.25 miles and there was sufficient grumbling by everyone that encountered the 80lber.
We then took a lap .44 without any coupons to speak of for recovery.

Fun was had by most, suck was embraced by all.
MARY:
No Time
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
None
COT:
Don’t let anyone outwork or out-hustle you for your dreams. We drew a parallel of certain people who will do just about anything with an end use in mind. Don’t let them work harder on their goal than you are working on yours.
