RUCKAPALOOZA SAN DIEGO
RUCK THE WEST COAST
July 10–11, 2026 | San Diego, California
Ruckapalooza San Diego - Fitness Party & City Ruck Weekend
July 10–11, we’ll ruck the coast, the streets, and everything in between, with a home base that sets the tone for the whole weekend. Every route starts and finishes with your people — salt air, sunshine, and that SoCal edge.
On-site, our partners will be rolling deep with activations and challenges. You’ll try (and fail) to drink all the beer and clear out the food trucks, surrounded by the best community anywhere.
It’s our kind of fun — San Diego style.

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
