The Challenge

One mile. 3,960 stairs. Four miles.

This month, we remember the 2,977 lives lost on September 11, 2001. Ruck 1 mile for the distance around the Pentagon, climb 3,960 stairs for the combined 220 stories of the Twin Towers, and ruck 4 miles for the fourth plane lost in Somerset County, Pennsylvania. This month's patch is stitched with reflective thread, a reminder that even in the darkest moments, a little light goes a long way.
