RUCK TOTAL

4 x 400M RUCK FOR total LOAD.

SCORE: Total Load in pounds, accumulated by each successful 400m effort.

TIME: Time limit for ALL attempts is 60 minutes.

FLOW: Each teammate must successfully complete a 400m at a given load for the attempt to account. The 400m attempt must be done "unbroken" meaning no weight can touch the ground or fall from the individual attempting the 400m. Teammate can only assist in the loading portion, prior to starting the 400m attempt. If one teammate does not complete their 400m attempt, the score is 0 for that attempt.

Example:
ATTEMPT 1: Partner 1 rucks 400m with 100# and Partner 2 rucks 400m with 100#. ATTEMPT 1 score is 100#. ATTEMPT 2: Partner 1 rucks 400m with 120# and Partner 2 does NOT complete 400m with 120#. ATTEMPT 2 score is 0.
ATTEMPT 3: Partner 1 rucks 400m with 110# and Partner 2 rucks 400m with 110#. ATTEMPT 3 score is 110#
ATTEMPT 4: Partner 1 rucks 400m with 115# and Partner 2 rucks 400m with 115#. ATTEMPT 4 score is 115#
RUCK TOTAL: 100+0+110+115=335 pounds.
