The ruck sack...the big tick, and other loving names.
Fitness is a necessity for doing the many things we are required to do but as the voices of experience say. you gotta ruck. In true ZEN fashion you and the tick are one. not for the twelve milers but for the months on end. Long term endurance really doesn't have a play in ruck world. It is a Mind set to take the next step after a very long day under the tick.
Curse it as we all have, it is still our life support, our house, our food, his commo gear, my demo gear, our wardrobe, our ammo and water. That's not to mention the comfort items like a bag of lemon drops to be shared with the team a couple of weeks out as a special. But then I digress. Put it on and live with it. It will become a part of you. Don't think ruck marches, think ruck journey. Up and down mountains, across deserts, through jungles. All of these add a different dimension to "rucking". Enjoy Dave
