May Rucking Challenge
The Challenge:
Ruck 4 miles at 2x your normal rucking weight.
Let's do this
In observance of Memorial Day, you will ruck in memory and honor of someone who has died in the line of service.
The ruck will be 4 miles (2 for you and 2 for the person you’re honoring).
Your ruck weight will be 2x what you normally ruck with (carrying your weight and the weight of the person you’re honoring).
Options for this challenge
Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced:
4 miles at 2x your normal rucking weight.
Only option is to increase your distance in increments of 2 miles.
Ruck can be performed any day in May, but Memorial Day is preferred.
