🎒 The Thang: Quest for the Crazy 8 Grail Ruck up. Begin rounds of glory and mild regret. At every ~15-20 yards, stop for a station:
Lower Loop:
– Vary mode of animal transportation between stations or until you cry “NI!”
1️⃣ Copperhead Squats x8 + Bear 2️⃣ Flutter Kicks x8 + Horse 3️⃣ Merkins x8 + Cricket 4️⃣ LBCs x8 + Duck
Upper Loop:
– Indian Run between stations
5️⃣ LBCs x8
6️⃣ Copperhead Squats x8
7️⃣ Flutter Kicks x8
8️⃣ Merkins x8
🧠 Moleskin: The only thing heavier than our rucks were the questionable British accents. Spirits high, mumblechatter mostly about @RestStop’s house. Everyone survived. @BabyFace may have been turned into a newt — but he got better.
🛡️ COT:
Like coconuts without horses, we carry weight together. The real Grail isn’t out there — it’s in the effort, the grit, the gloom. And probably in your water bottle.
When you’re struggling focus on God. “Oh, don’t grovel! If there’s one thing I can’t stand, it’s people groveling!”
Prayers for @SlumLord, @PaperJam, all those traveling, especially @FMB with 13 hours of the MIL, and all the unspoken prayers.
SYITG, noble HIMs. 🅕 Fitness • 🅕 Fellowship • 🅕 Faith “Your mother was a hamster, and your ruck smells of elderberries.” 🐭🍇
