Awesome workout. Stretch afterwards feels great.

1:18. A little slower than my 1:10 split in Air Assault 4 years ago, but definitely workable.

Didn’t make the timeline but holy cow this one nearly did me in. Great workout though.

W1/D5 - ** Ruck March Assessment (6-miles)

Definitely tough but that’s how we build ourselves up.

Forgot to set the timer for the 3 mile but made it in good time. The rest definitely is a smoker. Get through the smoke to get better!🤙

35:12. Humbling but motivating. This is the beginning.
