Organiser's Description
NEW FOR 2025 - RUCKING AND VIRTUAL OPTIONS!
WHAT IS RUCKING?
Rucking is a physical activity that involves walking or hiking with a weighted backpack (called a rucksack). The term comes from the military, where soldiers train and operate carrying heavy loads over long distances. In civilian fitness and recreation, rucking is gaining popularity as a versatile and low-impact workout. We now offer it at all Chilly Willy Events!
