Sunday morning Rucksack march. Do a quick warmup of pushups and sit-ups before heading out. Head out over varied terrain and try to go as fast as you can without running.

Stretch well both before and after the event. Remember to drink plenty of water and stay hydrated out there. It is possible that this 12-miler will be in the rain this morning, so we’ll get this one in with the rain jacket on.

Training:

Warm up

2 x 20 Pushups

2 x 20 Sit-ups

12-mile Rucksack march over varied terrain with a 45-pound minimum. Remember the standard is 3 hours…. With the threat of rain early, it is a good reminder that many of your gated events may be in bad weather or not in the greatest of conditions. Keep driving on.

Stretch well after completion
