What had happened was:
Got a 7:07 PM HC for an early off-the-books ruck to include some merkins and big boys. The challenge? A 4:30 AM launch thanks to YHC’s flight to Houston.

Rolled out solo from Stonegate Clubhouse after a ruck in. Arrived 4:27, took a loop, and even collected lamp data (because what else do you do at 4:30 AM in the gloom?).

At 4:32, headed up Applegate Parkway just in case the HC was running a bit behind. Can’t fault a man if the alarm clock misses on a Monday this early.

Workout turned into a ruck with pain stations — 5 merkins at each street lamp on the return. Wrapped things up back at the truck at 1:03:50. Mission complete.

Sometimes the best beatdowns are the ones that don’t make the schedule. Accountability + movement + a little extra weird task (streetlight recon) = win.
