The Ruck Challenge (TRC), now in its 9th Annual 10K 5K competition, aims to foster teamwork and camaraderie among veterans engaged in rehabilitative programs in our community. It challenges various agencies to compete in an event that tests endurance, strength, and strategy, all while honoring the sacrifices veterans have made in serving our country.
What sets TRC apart is its inclusivity—it welcomes everyone: veterans, community members, first responders, friends, and coworkers. It’s a chance to come together for a fun event while supporting a vital cause: our veterans. By participating in TRC, you demonstrate your solidarity with those who have bravely served in the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, and Space Force, showing appreciation for their commitment to our nation.
Join us in making a difference! Take part in The Ruck Challenge 2024 5K 10K and show your appreciation for our Veterans. This event is a platform to raise awareness for the invisible wounds of war that our local military Veterans endure.
Funds raised will directly support Veterans grappling with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Traumatic Brain Injury, substance abuse, and sexual trauma.
Whether you prefer to walk, run, or participate without a ruck, your involvement matters. Can’t join the challenge in person? Consider making a donation to support our cause. Every contribution counts toward improving the lives of those who’ve served our country.
