We HIGHLY recommend using bricks for this event... let's keep it OG

10 Year Tough Anniversary

10 Year Tough Anniversary

A decade later, come celebrate the anniversary of the GORUCK Challenge with GORUCK Founder Jason McCarthy as Cadre. We'll retrace some of the original steps with rucks on our back and we'll look forward at the next decade before rinsing off and hitting the town together. Participant slots are limited to 50 people. You are encouraged to bring wrapped bricks (4 or 6), OG style.

25% of all registration revenues will be donated to the Green Beret Foundation. Participants are also encouraged to fundraise for GBF or the cause of their choice.

10-12 HOURS, 15-20 MILES. THE ORIGINAL CHALLENGE. AVERAGE COMPLETION RATE: 94%
