Wait, Dallas Has Charging Stations for Electric Cars?

After spending the last week battling sickness and congestion, I pulled into The Boars Nest with a full week away from F3. A good ruck is just the ticket to get back in the groove though! I knew Big Pappy and HIPAA would be there Sunday, but was also glad to see Nothin and Pockets planning to join us.

I decided a trip up and down the hills Freight showed me last week would be a good call. With HIPAA making his first trip to the B.N. AO, I wanted to show him we indeed have some very capable terrain that can help with BRR prep. 50′ into our ruck, Nothin decided to run so we were down to 4! (Gold Digger will include Nothin in his backblast).

We made several laps up and down the hills of Northern Dallas, stopping periodically for low-slow squats in-cadence and lunge walks across the street and back while the 6 caught up. We basically continued to circle Big Pappy’s house and we popped out on Oakland St and proceeded over to the courthouse. I feel like HIPAA liked the hills, but was most impressed that Dallas has charging stations for electric cars. (ssshhhhh, don’t tell anyone!)

The rain was really picking up now as we got in a little run of the Stair Nightmare – Triple Nickel over the courthouse stairs, with 5 Merkins on one side and 5 squats on the other.

With a few minutes to spare, we wrapped up and headed back to Ingles. HIPAA and I were talking about some coupons and options to get a telephone pole during the ruck and was we are approaching the end of our ruck, we saw a piece of telephone pole about 4-5 ft long just sitting in the ditch. It was obviously being thrown away so we grabbed it and rescued it from the scrap pit. To go along with our Dukes of Hazzard theme, I have named it Daisy since it’s not very big and needed to be rescued, much like Daisy did in almost every episode of the TV show. Daisy was tossed in the back of my truck for future use.

Thanks to the guys who joined me today. I look forward to getting a few more new faces out to The Boars Nest soon!

We joined the Crossroads COT.
