NEW FOR 2016: 5k Ruck Run/Walk

Rucking turns your race into a heart health boosting endurance endeavor. Participants provide their own ruck sack and weight as they use a combination of running and walking the 5k race course. All ruck sacks must weigh 30 lbs and will be weighed prior to the start/finish. If you’re rucking for fitness, you don’t need a fancy military-type pack- any backpack will do & any type of weight inside will too. US Army Recruiting Center will provide guidance as they ruck alongside you for support and encouragement during the race.
