Organiser's Description
serving as the first event for our Ruck marches/Run and other fitness events, this will hopefully become a great community which people from all over can participate in. The main goal is to help people get out there and improve not only their physical capabilities but mental toughness as well.
20% of the funds gathered will be sent to military foundations and other military organizations to help those familys of fallen soldiers and soldiers who have been wounded in combat. We seek to help improve the military community and get people both in and out of it to come together and enjoy the beauty and strength of the military community.
If you are rucking, there will be a certain weight standard to meet (if you are able to).
The standards are the following:
* if you weigh less than 150lbs your ruck should overall weigh 20-30lbs
* if you weight more than 150lbs your ruck should overall weight 30-45lbs
Being a virtual ruck march/run and running events, this will not be a race but feel free to time yourselves and upload the results in order to gain boasting rights and push those around and participating to keep putting in the work and making it possible.
