Highlight from training has been rucking with my dog, Netter. I rescued him in 2020 during COVID lockdown and my first ‘rucks’ were with him in a backpack while he was recovering from heartworms. I started properly rucking while I was deployed and I had been looking forward to have him run along side me. It’s come full circle and a fast couple of miles outside is now one of his favorite things to do! He’s been with me for 100 miles of training so far this year!
I will be rucking in honor of the Soldiers of the 101st Combat Aviation Brigade (CAB) who lost their lives this week.
