Perinteiset kevätreippailut 10 kg repun kanssa Varustelekan Etäsotilasmarssissa
#vrmm2025 #ves2025 #remotemilitarymarch

Kävin tänään reippailemassa perinteeksi muodostuneen Varustelekan Etäsotilasmarssin. Homma sujui ihanteellisessa kevätsäässä ja maltoin poiketa muutamissa Itä-Helsingin historiallisista kohteistakin kuten Mustavuoren ja Porvarinlahden (kuvassa) linnoituksissa 👌 #ves2025 #vrmm2025 #hyviähommia

Eilen oli taas perinteinen firman tykypäivä/ etäsotilasmarssi. Sirkalle toinen, mulle ehkä neljäs. Erinäisten ”juttujen” takia suunniteltu 30 km olikin lopulta 36 km, mutta nakkien voimalla Team tuubihuivitytöt selvisi hengissä!

Swapped packs again and switched to bigger boots to relieve my bunions. Chafing and hikers rash are kicking my tuchus, but I at least completed 25km and get to greet the dawn outside.

Still about a kilometer shy of 25, but I made a temporary bivouac, so I could make a meal and coffee. First time using a Kelly Kettle too. #vrmm2025 #ves2025 #remotemilitarymarch

Heard lots of birds on my trudge, but mainly found remains. That Possum is really committed to playing dead.

Not everyone has a glut of rucks to choose from, if you’re playing the home game the additional choice of MOS/class can alway dictate other kit options. The best part of forced march training is, all you need is boots and a backpack.
