Those cold temps finally hit. Windchill was -16. I almost turned around.
You ever start something and want to quit. That's was me yesterday. Put all my kit on, no ruck, just a 20lb vest. Set up some tunes and stepped off. I was all set to do some intervals.
The wind was howling, kicking up snow and coming head on. Fuck me, my face hurt, my hands were frozen and my mind started to say - just turn around, it's warm at home. You don't need to do this shit.
We've all been there... but this was a mini-battle that I was not going to lose. And I didn't. 5K, 100m intervals with 20lbs.
Ya, I finished. That negative inner voice really pissed me off this time for some reason.
Now that I'm done I feel great. It wasn't an actual ruck, but it was weighted and it all ties together for training.
Send it! Ruck ON!

Not quite that cold but when I travelled to Germany, I got up early and went for my normal run. Same thing, damn it was cold. I nearly gave up but kept going. After a while when the blood started pumping, I settled in to it.
So what is the purpose of the Ruck community 🤔?
Yup, any individual sport where you push yourself there's always that voice in the back of your mind. You're right once you settle in it's a lot easier to make it go away and carry on.
I think you will start to hear a lot more about Rucking as it gains in popularity - at least I hope. For the Ruckers, rucking is a form of cardio, building work capacity and endurance. It builds a strong foundation for movement under load.
The Rucking community was started by @albuslucimus. I think it will fill a niche for us weirdos that like to toss weight in a ruck(backpack) and go for a hike. 😁 As with many communities it is also a place to share a common interest, experiences and motivation.
Rucking is a fantastic activity for a total body workout. Hope to see you around, give it a try.
