Ruck Race Meets Scavenger Hunt

CITY RUCKING SERIES

GORUCK is The Rucking Company and we have executed over 10,000 rucking events since 2010, empowering a global community of ruckers. The City Rucking Series is a great way to join GORUCK Nation, to meet people who live our way of life, and to explore your city or a new one on foot.

How it works:

  • A GORUCK Cadre will give you the waypoints that comprise your route
  • You'll have time for some quick route navigation before stepping off
  • Ruck it solo or with friends - up to you!
  • Refuel anywhere you want along the route
  • When you successfully complete your City Ruck, your Cadre will hand you a cold beer and a patch that will never be for sale

Fitness & Fun

RUCKAPALOOZA Activations

Two smiling women in athletic wear pose outdoors with backpacks, sunglasses, and race bibs at the inclusive MOTHERUCKER 5K fitness event.

MOTHERUCKER 5K

The MOTHERUCKER 5K is a women-led ruck for women. Grab your rucksack or weighted vest (Spy Ruck is our ride or die), throw on your favorite band tee, and we'll ruck and dance together to tunes as we take over the mean streets with our well-intended badassery.

EMBRACE THE COLD CHALLENGE

Embrace discomfort and build resilience with contrast therapy. Stay calm under pressure. Suffer well, recover stronger.

BEER MILE CHALLENGE

1 mile, 100lbs, 4 beers. Chug, ruck, repeat. Go all out and have fun with this heavy challenge. Scale the weight and get after it! 

YOGA For Ruckers

GORUCK-style yoga for mobility, durability & recovery. Loosen up and rebuild so you can move strong and get back after it!

SKI RUCK CHALLENGE

Max-effort SkiErg challenge performed under load. Wear a ruck and ski for max calories as fast as you can. Simple. Heavy. Unforgiving. Capacity over comfort.

SANDBAG BURPEE CORNHOLE

Earn your throws. 10 sandbag burpees, then score big while your lungs are on fire. A fast, competitive & deceptively hard challenge.

KEG CHALLENGE

Master the awkward, unstable keg. Grab a buddy, share the weight, and don't drop it. Teamwork, grit & a little suffering required.
