Part 1

The GoRuck Selection PT test is: 55 Pushups in 2 minutes, 65 Situps in 2 minutes, a 5 mile Run in 40 minutes and then a 12 mile ruck with 45 lbs of steel in 3 hours and 30 minutes.

In order to fit in the selection PT test into our typical Saturday workout the order was reversed and completed in two parts.

This Backblast is Part 1:

3 Hour Ruck, 12 Laps were completed on a closed loop in Downtown Perrysburg, some PAX completed 13 laps to get in a full 12 miles completed as each lap left the mileage trackers just short on mileage. All PAX completing 13 laps had to run a portion of the Ruck to meet the time deadline.

Some PAX carried 45 lbs of steel, all PAX carried what they were comfortable carrying.

Ended in a COT with Count-o-Rama and Name-o-Rama.

Bambi Led the Prayer, most PAX were thankful in this moment for completing the first 12 miles.
