Event summary

Get ready for an unforgettable experience at the inaugural Military City RED WHITE & RUCK event on Saturday, November 4, 2023, in San Antonio, Bexar! This exciting competition invites participants of all abilities, including active-duty military, veterans, Gold Star families, and civilians, to honor our fallen heroes while enjoying a unique challenge. Whether you choose to walk or ruck, you have the freedom to complete as many laps as you desire on the scenic 2-mile out-and-back course, which features a stimulating section of stairs.

The event kicks off at 9:00 AM at Mission Park, where you'll have three hours to test your endurance while carrying a minimum of 25 pounds in a backpack or weighted vest. For those who prefer a more relaxed pace, an honorary division allows participants to walk without weight. Each participant will receive a bib featuring the name of a fallen service member to honor as they march, alongside a commemorative patch and shirt (while supplies last). Join us for a day of camaraderie, remembrance, and physical challengeβ€”let’s show the world just how tough we can be while giving back to those who have served!

Organiser's Description

HONOR HEAL CONNECT

Active-duty military, veterans, Gold Star families, and civilians are all welcome to attend this event. We also have an honorary division for those who do not wish to compete. Regardless of physical ability, we encourage everyone to participate and carry the fallen with them on the course.



WHAT IS THE RED WHITE & RUCK, AND WHAT MAKES IT SO SPECIAL?

Imagine if a ruck march, a cycling time trial (without the bike), and a tailgate had a baby. You'd have RWR! LOL.

Join us for a one-of-a-kind competition organized by a USMC mom and the founder of Memories of Honor to honor our fallen service members and their families while promoting camaraderie within the community. The RWR competition follows a criterium-style format with a time-trial timing system. Participants run or ruck on foot while carrying weighted packs or vests, completing multiple laps on a short course. Are you ready to step up and show the world just how tough you truly are?
