Hey Old Cityzens!

I hope everyone had great weekend and already filed their taxes. Why are accountants always tired after work? Because their job is so taxing.

Weight Vests
With Murph coming up next month, I know folks are starting to try out weight vests. Keep in mind that if you’re borrowing one that’s stored at the gym, it likely won’t be available come Memorial Day because it belongs to someone else. A few options out there are from Amazon, GORUCK, Rogue, and INVEST. The weight requirement for Murph is 20/14# (men/women), and you should already be proficient in all the movements before trying Murph with a vest.

If you have any other weight vest recommendations, post about them in our Facebook Community Group.
