July Challenge
Celebrate freedom and independence this July by rucking 17.76 miles while carrying an American Flag.

Full size flags are recommended, but smaller flags attached to your ruck are also acceptable. If rucking with a group, only one flag is required (though more is better).
International Participants:
We encourage you to ruck with the flag of your country. Freedom is something we believe in and hope it is something that all men and women can enjoy fully.
Distance:
Serious Rucker: All 17.76 Miles in one ruck.
All Other Ruckers: Accumulate 17.76 Miles in as few rucks as possible.
Weight:
Rucker's Choice.

Blisters Suck! They can stop you dead in your tracks. They can scuttle a mission. They certainly drain all the fun out of the challenge. So, don’t get them. Use what Marines, Army Rangers and Navy SEALs use. Use FRICTION SHIELD. Use it during training. Use it when you ruck, Use it when you break in new equipment. But just use it. Because Blisters and Chaffing Sucks! And FRICTION SHIELD works. Just ask the winners of GORUCK Team Assessment.

FAQ
1. Why should I do this challenge?
Because doing hard things and earning patches is awesome.
2. Do I have to carry a US Flag?
If you're not an American, you can carry the flag of your country. If you are an American, we think you should carry the American flag. Though, it is a "Freedom Ruck" so you can carry any flag you want. I guess that's kinda the point.
3. What happens if I don't complete the challenge?
Well... nothing. You still get the patch and can still win the gear. But, come on. It is gonna be awesome.
4. Why is the subscription price lower than the single entry price?
Because, we want you to sign up for the subscription.
5. I'm not sure I want to subscribe. What if next month's challenge is too hard or the prize isn't as cool?
