Got up early since I wanted to do a ruck march. Haven't done one in a couple weeks and thought it might help get my legs ready for the climbing on Saturday.
Got out to the forest around 0650. Stretched for a few minutes then tossed on my pack and headed out. I started off thinking I would do the 5mi loop, but after 1.5mi, I decided I should bump it up to the 6mi. Took the left turn to take add on the extra mile (and 2 big hills). Kept up a pretty decent pace, considering its off road and really hilly. Unfortunately, I think I was the first or second person out on the trails, so I was constantly getting spiderwebs to the face. Yuck. Finished in 1:39.
Got home. Did my normal breakfast routine. Then remembered that my neighbor was going to get a truckload of sand to spread around some low spots in his yard. I decided it made more sense for me to help them do all the heavy lifting so that they didn't hurt themselves. Helped them carry all of the sand 50m from their truck to their backyard using a couple large buckets. This would be another of those "farm fitness" type of workouts.
Decided to rest the remainder of the day.
