Ruck It BackBlast – Labear Day/BYOB

BYOB  = Bear Your Own Burden, Be Your Own Bear

A 4 Pax greeted the day at Union Point Park for Ruck It.  Given the temps lately, YHC was almost chilly while waiting in the Gloom.  Once assembled, Mission Statement and Disclaimer were recited.  Rucks on for:

THE THANG

Basically a winding route through the historic business district of downtown New Bern.  Upon each bear sighting, Pax would pause for a random exercise.  To keep everyone guessing, not even the Q knew what exercise was to be performed, nor how many reps.  Some were single count, some in cadence.  In addition to stops for bear, the Pax Bear-Crawled around the traffic circle, across the road at several points and up/down the steps at City Hall (up = easy, down = not easy).  Mix in Merkins, Irkins, Tricep Dips, Bear Hug Squats, Ruck Curls, Ruck Thrusters, Ruck Press w/ LSF, Yes & No, Burpees and perhaps others.  Upon returning to the Union Point Park entrance, we even threw in a Fartlek-like substance by Ruck-Running from entrance to Gazebo.

Was great to start the day off in this fashion.  Thanks again for the leadership opportunity.
