Constitution Ruck

As we continue celebrating America's 250th birthday, this month's Callout honors the document that transformed a fledgling nation into a constitutional republic: the United States Constitution. More than just a blueprint for government, the Constitution established a system designed to preserve liberty by limiting power, separating authority, and ensuring that no one person or institution stands above the law. We're honoring the The United States Constitution this month because it was signed on September 17, 1787 at Independence Hall in Philadelphia.

The first ten amendments—the Bill of Rights—are the keystone of those freedoms, protecting the liberties we often take for granted: speech, religion, the press, peaceful assembly, due process, and the right to keep and bear arms, among others.

Welcome to the Constitution Ruck. During this month's Callout, you'll stop at every mile to recite one amendment and complete 10 pushups; a reminder that freedom isn't just inherited, it must be understood and defended by each generation.
