Got my new rucksack on payday, a 35 litre Highlander Forces Harrier Pack. Lovely bit of kit, I was having issues with the shoulder adjustments slipping because of the weight of my breeze block (Brick Astley) and a few bricks. Made a working fix mid-walk by tying a stop knot on each side, problem solved.

This has been part of my daily nutrition recently! Now I know it doesn’t look great in the photo but it tastes AMAZING!!! 😍 2 x Toasted sourdough bread Butter 140g cooked chicken breast (seasoned and cooked in the air fryer) A little ketchup 510 calories 53g of protein 👌

Guys, Just checking in on the draft team for the misogi challenge on 27 Dec. Below are those of you who initially showed interest. Let me know if you're still coming by selecting Yes. @Steven Dews @Stephen Davis @Chris Jones @Chris Flynn @Gerwyn Fear @Bradley Rogers @Liam Zamudio @Cal Mcc @James Pugh Next steps will be... - Chrissie and I are still confirming the route - I'll be sending a health questionnaire to those confirmed as coming to cover all bases - TShirts will be ordered 1 Dec, so be sure to tell me your size and send payment. Good new, they may end up being closer to £25 per tee, so any extra payments will be refunded, but send £30 for now. - @Stephen Davis will oil up the log with essential oils so it's nice and pretty for us ;)

StrongDads, I found out yesterday that a former coach and friend of mine has passed away. Unfortunately, he took his own life. So, now seems like as important a time as any to ensure that we’re checking in with each other. Also a reminder that we have a team of experienced and capable men here, let’s keep each other safe. Brothers, how are you doing?

Guys… *OPTIONAL* - if you’re taking pay in the Misogi, there’s the option to get a one-off StrongDads Misogi stealth-tee in black. Cost £30. If you want a T-shirt for the event and to rep the StrongDads movement afterwards, gimme a thumbs up below and your size.
