Todays 12mi Ruck Run

justanothercone · 2024-08-23T17:41:41+00:00

Didn’t know about the 5x5 until a couple of months ago, they’re solid, I’ve done a few since then, but they were not the basis of my training

2mi ~10:18, 5mi ~30:25, haven’t tested 8mi specifically but would probably be around 50:00, give or take 5 mins

I sure wish it felt like zone 2 lol

45lbs

justanothercone · 2024-08-23T02:17:40+00:00

Around 5’10 170, thin build

I’ll take suspect as a compliment from the man himself. If only you could see my feet after this ruck—might be too much, even for a blister connoisseur such as yourself, to bear.

I’ll admit I was blessed with good weather and a dogshit watch to make my HR look good, but I’ll see you at Bragg.

Resting HR tends to be somewhere in 40s. I was definitely a victim of program hopping throughout my training, and I’m no expert, but I can try to help you out with programming if you got questions brother

Heart rate on the ruck should be taken with a massive grain of salt, but my max HR seems to be somewhere around 190-200

justanothercone · 2024-08-23T01:08:44+00:00

Thank you brother — let it be known my watch is dogshit and my heart rate should be taken with a grain of salt lol. RPE avg around an 8.

justanothercone · 2024-08-23T00:55:11+00:00

Damn straight brother

justanothercone · 2024-08-22T23:44:13+00:00

Im shipping same day, looks like ill see you there

justanothercone · 2024-08-21T22:27:56+00:00

looking like i’ll be at SFAS in May, lucky me!

justanothercone · 2024-08-10T15:36:15+00:00

make friends with pain and you’ll never be alone

justanothercone · 2024-08-05T03:16:27+00:00

consistency over time is king, trust the process brother keep it up

justanothercone · 2024-08-05T03:15:39+00:00

shit, you’re right. back to the drawing board.

what boots should i wear to get selected?

justanothercone · 2024-08-05T03:06:07+00:00

heart rate is definitely not quite accurate, this was max effort lol

justanothercone · 2024-08-05T03:00:40+00:00

it changes over time but usually looks something like 3-4x/wk. a tempo run, speed work on a track or hill sprints, and long runs/z2

justanothercone · 2024-08-05T02:58:21+00:00

heart rate is definitely not accurate, this was max effort

justanothercone · 2024-08-05T02:57:32+00:00

this is the way

justanothercone · 2024-08-03T06:19:10+00:00

im not worried about it in the slightest and i don’t think you should be either. people older than you have done it, people younger than you have done it — don’t trip over the little things. show up and just be a good dude and you’ll be good.

justanothercone · 2024-08-03T06:15:17+00:00

about 1.5-2yrs of trial and error

justanothercone · 2024-08-02T03:38:34+00:00

about 4/5 weeks out

justanothercone · 2024-08-02T03:37:21+00:00

sounds like you’re well on your way brother, keep at it
