Is Tri training/marathoning good cross-training for SF?  |
Do you see a lot of long distance swimming, biking, and running long distances without a ruck in your SFAS prep handbook?
Or would the time be better spent working on your APFT events and rucking?
I would say that if you already have a Beret and a Tab, it is a fine hobby.
