THE 24 Hour cloverleaf

$100 Registration fee

Take on the 24 Hour Cloverleaf by completing all 6 workouts + rucking evolutions.

24+ hours. 24+ miles. 6 workouts. 7 patches. 100% outside.

How it works:

  • Every 4 hours, ruckers receive the workout, to be done with sandbags and/or rucksacks 
  • When the workout is complete, ruckers will ruck for a prescribed distance
  • When you return, you’re on your time until the next workout drops
  • There are 6 total Cloverleafs (workout plus ruck movement) that you will complete
  • When done, we gather, hydrate, and honor the time together
  • Complete all 6 Cloverleafs and earn the 24 Hour Cloverleaf patch.

NOTE: Camping is permitted on site at GORUCK HQ, making this a true live-outside event from start to finish.
