005 - Sunday, October 25th - 0100 Hours (01:00 AM)

To do things most will never understand. We are the crazy ones, the rebels and the renegades, the patron saints of non-conformity hell bent on charting our own course, come what may.

Expect the human spirit to burn brightly. Expect grit and soul. Expect to meet people willing to show up for this kind of thing. Expect to move with a sense of purpose, chasing the sunrise. To lead is to serve: nothing more, nothing less. Your Cadre and humble servant will not only guide you on a tour of your city, he will also ruck shoulder to shoulder with you and partake in the Good Livin’ when the time comes. Cold beers, blood sweat tears and camaraderie all await. But first, RUCK OR DIE. 

WHAT TO BRING
  • Yourself, ready to ruck.
  • Rucksack. On your back, as God intended. Basic Rucker recommended.
  • Rucking Weight. Carry what you think is right — this is your first integrity check. Loads will be shared and cross-loaded according to the needs of the team. The pace will be fast. There is much to do and so little time.
  • Water. 100% bring it. Electrolytes, too.
  • Food. It’s a crutch, but bring some if you want to share, family style.
