EVENT DETAILS

20k Ruck : Rucking is the activity of walking or hiking while carrying a weighted backpack, designed to build strength and endurance. We have a limited supply of demo rucksacks provided by GORUCK for participant use. However, these packs are in limited supply so we recommend that participants bring their own pack and weight implement.

5k Run / Walk : A 5K run/walk is a 3.1-mile event that participants can either run or walk at their own pace, promoting fitness and community involvement. Participants should wear comfortable athletic shoes, moisture-wicking clothing, and bring water for hydration during the event.

Why Participate? By joining us, youll be supporting three incredible local nonprofit organizations: BIG SKY BRAVERY, TALONS REACH FOUNDATION, AND WARRIORS AND QUIET WATERS. These organizations are dedicated to providing critical support, healing, and opportunities for our veterans and service members, helping them reintegrate and thrive in civilian life.

Special Offer: We are proud to offer free registration to all active duty and veteran service members as a token of our gratitude for their service. Please email [email protected] to take advantage of this opportunity.

Sponsors: This event is made possible through the generous support of our title sponsors: BLUE COLLAR RESTAURANT GROUP, GORUCK, RESSLER MOTORS AND WILD CARGO.
