A cold, wet. gloomy #RuckRun this morning in #WashingtonDC. 30 pounds, five miles. I've been doing four miles, but I bumped it up today. Same route, I just went an extra half mile along the trail before turning around and heading back.

#Friday morning #RuckRun on a wooded hiking trail in a #WashingtonDC park. As I emerged from the park onto the #Georgetown University campus, I spotted a huge hawk perched in a tree overlooking the banks of the #Potomac River.

(I tried waving at the people across the river in #Arlington, #Virginia, but they ignored me. Virginians are rude.)

#Rainy #RuckRun this morning. Gotta work off the #PostThanksgiving bloat and hangover somehow.

(Still doing four miles with a 30-pound load. I feel like I'm ready to kick up the intensity a notch or two, but this morning didn't feel like the right time for it.)

Repping my alma mater on my #Thanksgiving morning #RuckRun. I may live in #WashingtonDC these days, but #Minnesota will always be home.

#Wednesday #selfie during my morning #RuckRun in a #WashingtonDC park. 30 pounds for four miles. I'll reach my goal of 50 pounds for 10 miles one of these days, but it'll be a process.

#Tuesday #Morning #RuckRun in a #WashingtonDC park. Four miles carrying 30 pounds. My goal is to be able to consistently carry 50 pounds 10 miles without feeling like I'm going to die.

Photo taken with my phone. When I'm already carrying a backpack stuffed with 30 pounds of water weights, I'm not particularly interested in lugging around my camera gear.

Any fellow #Ruckers on #Mastodon? I love it. Simultaneously super relaxing AND pretty intense.
