Next week I take my "official" ACFT and then the week after I will begin training for the Bataan Memorial March. I'm still not sure if I want to do the honorary or just go for the full. Considering I historically hit a hard wall at around 12-14 miles, I think I will need to be very articulated with how I train for it. Of course I will be sporting the 35lbs (dry) ruck and will be purchasing my Garmond boots to break in so they will be ready, but that's just part of the puzzle.
As of last week I was officially 157lbs. For reference, this time last year I was tipping the scale at around 180lbs. So I'm feeling pretty good since BF% has gone down substantially but my muscle mass has steadily increased. I'm no longer trying to lose weight, just body fat. Guess I'll see how I do preparing to ruck 26 miles.
