Goruck Training

This is an informational post to share what we did at our first Goruck training session at Folsom last Saturday. We will be doing these workouts for a while on Saturday’s going from Saturday AO to Saturday AO. We will start 1 hour before the normal workout and end with the normal COT.

4 PAX carried 5 coupons to the lower lot at Folsom. Each was placed in it’s own parking space with one space open in the middle. Each PAX lined up with a coupon and took their ruck off and did 10 thrusters. They put their ruck back on, picked up the coupon, and carried it to the top of the parking lot and back. Rotate to the next coupon. We did this twice through all of the spaces. The open space was for a break from carrying something. The coupons were 40# sandbag, cement block, 30# slam ball, a set of 10# dumb bells, and a single 20# dumb bell. All in all we did 120 thrusters and covered about 1.5-2 miles carrying the coupons.

Next YHC let the PAX choose a coupon to take turns carrying on a ruck. The 30# slam ball was chosen. Bad choice! Balls are awkward to carry. That’s what she….any way we went to the courthouse and back. Total miles was 6 for the workout.

Next week 1/18 we will be at Gashouse 0600 to see what Whoopee has cooked up for us.
