Oklahoma City Bombing Memorial
"The spirit of this city and this nation will not be defeated; our deeply rooted faith sustains us."
– Oklahoma City National Memorial
On 19 April, 1995, a domestic terrorist parked a Ryder rental truck filled with explosives in front of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City. When he detonated it, 168 innocent men, women, and children died. GORUCK Oklahoma City Events will memorialize and honor those who were lost and those who survived 25 years ago. We will ruck to the memorial and visit other key locations that honor the sacrifices that tragic day.
10-12 HOURS, 15-20 MILES. THE ORIGINAL CHALLENGE. AVERAGE COMPLETION RATE: 94%
