The Thang:
22 pax rolled into Speedtrap this morning for the finale of our Tuesday GoRuck training. Thanks again to all the non-GoRuck pax who put up with our Tuesday Q’s for the past two months. Today’s workout was one last focus on moving together, working as a team and exercising in sync. The pax were broken down into three teams and lead by Toothpick, Fire Daddy and Moneypenny. Below is a basic summary of what each team did though minor modifications were made throughout.
