TheNewGirl 1,054 Posted November 9, 2020 https://www.goruckevents.com/ You wear a ruck sack with a weight (10 or 20 lbs) and walk/hike a route around your city, etc. Ours had a few workouts in between the rucks. So, we'd do a workout consisting of things like squats and burpees, then ruck/hike for 3 miles, another work out, hike again for 2 miles.....you get the idea. During this, you carry a flag. Our flag and flagpole was about 20 lbs, so this adds to your workout. It's a team effort, so you take turns carrying the flag. Our flag had a black background with the arrow in the American flag (red/white/blue with stars) and under that in blue in red says, "Go Ruck USA."

A few honked. We got a "Trump lost!" shout I believe. I think they thought we were a Trump parade, honestly even tho there were only about 8 of us, 6 being women. So, if you're out there driving and you see a flag of some kind, make sure you READ WHAT THE FLAG FOCKING SAYS before you start flipping people off. People are idiots.

It was because you had a part of the American flag... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herbivore 915 Posted November 9, 2020 I dislike all "variations" of the American Flag. Were all of the people you were "rucking", which sounds stupid to me, but whatever, with Trump supporters? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are all close friends of mine, but I've never asked how they vote..... I don't care. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flipper 57 Posted November 11, 2020 This seems pretty cool. Have to mention it to the son. Considering the social climate you could have opted for carrying a log instead .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
