A rabble of 15 studly gloom warriors accepted today’s Ruck challenge, including NTB’s two high-spirited FNG’s. Yoko and Sandy (75lb punching bag & 50lb sand bag) joined the PAX from the get-go, and we didn’t travel far before collecting all four 8’ logs plus other cindies. Here’s how the PAX carried ‘em:

The THANG: 

WARMERAMA:

  • Welcome & Disclaimer
  • Shoulder Yoko & Sandy
  • Ruck 200 yards to Casa De DTH
  • Collect x4 eight foot telephone poles and a number of cinder blocks
  • Ruck the woods loop behind DTH’s house
  • Circle up at the Shed & stretch

TRIPLE CHECK:

  • Get into groups of four
  • 2-man log carry the woods loop
  • Overhead press using either ruck or Cindy
  • Squats +/- holding Cindy
  • Stop once all PAX have carried the logs for three loops
  • Return all coupons

LOVE HILL:

  • Speed Ruck out onto Stratford and to the bottom of Love Hill
  • Lunge half way up, then ruck backwards the rest of the way, then hug a tree for the Six

RUCK BTTF:

  • Speed Ruck back up to Forrest Hill Ave
  • Plank at the top awaiting the Six
  • In plank, review F3 Mission, Core Principles, and Credo
  • Speed Ruck BTTF

COT:

  • Counterama # 15
  • Namerama *will wait to name the FNG’s until they post to a legit AO
  • Announcerama (see Below)
  • YHC took the PAX out in Prayer

NMS:  Solid crowd for the OTB ruck today! Congrats to LWOODS breaking the seal on his first of many rucks! Welcome back to SABLE who’s already becoming a regular within just a week of his first post! And Tclaps to all the PAX who have Registered for GTE#47. Let’s get you other guys signed up! 💪 Also, great to meet Ian & James. Ian is in the military and currently visiting RVA – he’s invited everyone to the upcoming “Monumental Honor” 3/30 (details below). James is from NTB’s church and has the best Australian Irish accent you’ll ever hear. Hoping these two fine men return to earn their F3 nicknames at an AO real soon! Your Humble Ruckateer, DTH
