What is a ruck?

Rucking is the act of walking with weight on your back. It’s a low impact exercise based on military training workouts that improves cardio, strength, endurance, and character. This is a challenge by choice event, go as heavy or as far as you’re enthusiastic about. Whether you come for camaraderie or to test your mettle, as long as you come in peace, you’re welcome!

To accommodate all participants we have a considerably slow pace, if you have a higher fitness level make sure to carry enough weight in your ruck to appropriately handicap yourself so you aren’t bored, that’s the beauty of rucking!

We don’t care what you’re carrying in your ruck all we care about is that you come out to have a great time, even if you come out just for a walk and camaraderie you beat the version of yourself that sat on the couch that day!
