August - Throwing the Gauntlet

This post will be a little different from the normal monthly roll-up.

It’s an invitation to come on a journey with me.

While some of you also subscribe to my other substack, Ruck The F*uck Up, the audiences have been diverging, so I wanted to put this here.

I am less than 2 weeks from my 55th birthday, and although I am fitter than most my age, I’ve realized that I’ve put on weight and have slowly made certain concessions to aging.

That’s not a good example of what Walking Point is supposed to be about.

So, I’m going to war. I’ve given myself 1 year (and 1.5 weeks) to exceed all physical performance standards required of a Marine Raider.

If you’d like to come along on the journey— and if you don’t mind some salty language, join me.

Thanks for reading. Until next time, keep Walking Point.
