🎒 What Is Rucking?

Rucking is simply walking with a weighted backpack (a "ruck"). It’s used in military training and has become a popular way to combine fitness with purpose. For this event:

• You can use as much or as little weight as you’d like.
• No ruck? No problem! A standard backpack or weighted vest works great.
• This is not a competition — it’s about the effort and the cause.
