UPDATE🔥 Beginner’s Ruck – Friday, August 1st 🔥
Come Ready to Move, Learn, and Grow!
We’re just days away from our next Beginner’s Ruck, and this one is shaping up to be extra special!
As an added bonus, we’ll be sharing life-saving trauma first aid lessons — real-world skills that everyone should know. Whether you’re out on the trails or in everyday life, this knowledge could truly make a difference.
💥 No ruck? No problem!
Bring any backpack and fill it with anything to add some weight — water bottles, books, gear, anything sturdy. If you’re not sure what to bring, I’ll have a couple extra rucks on hand, plus 10 x 4 lb weights and a 20 lb plate to loan out. No excuses — just show up and step up!
We’re building strength, confidence, and community — one step at a time. See you out there!
💪 Never Quit. Never Alone. Always Forward. 💪

### 🥾 Ruck March – This Friday!

We’re back on! After last week’s rainout, the weather this Friday looks perfect—sunny with a high of 77°F and NO rain in sight! 🌞🙌
So let’s grab our rucks and hit the trails for a 2.9-mile hike through Knoch Knolls Park, ending at the Upper Pavilion for a fire, some s’mores, and great conversations. 🔥🍫
Rucking = walking with weight on your back—building strength, endurance, and community, one step at a time. 💪
