GORUCK EVENT WEEKEND: RUCKER OF LOOKOUT MOUTAIN
CHATTANOOGA, TN

Join us for Ruckers of Lookout Mountain in Chattanooga, TN.  Over the weekend, you will take on GORUCK Classic Challenges that emphasize teamwork, mental toughness, and problem-solving under load, all led by experienced cadre who know how to push you safely and effectively.

You will also complete a guided 12‑mile trail ruck on the Stringers Ridge loops, offering a mix of approachable terrain, steady climbs, and scenic views that are ideal for testing endurance. Cadre will lead the 12 Miler - Trail Rucks at a 20-minute-mile pace. Please be prepared to ruck at 3 mph for the duration of the 12 miles. You may use any weight that allows you to maintain this pace.

GORUCK is The Rucking Company and we have executed over 10,000 rucking events since 2010, empowering a global community of ruckers. The GORUCK Challenge is our flagship and original team building event. The City Ruck 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.

When you successfully complete an event, your Cadre will hand you a cold beverage and a patch that will never be for sale.
