    • ANyONE who Currently rucks and is curious about how they stack up against others.

    • anyone who Wants to compete and have fun doing it without it being some massive commitment that takes over their life, and prevents them from doing other things they love

    • someone New to rucking and would like some community support/accountability.

    • anyone who Wants to challenge themselves but doesn't want to create the challenge themself

    • anyone who Wants to challenge themself but doesn't know where to look or hasn't found something that sticks.

    • anyone who Likes the idea of a new monthly challenge (novelty) to keep them engaged/not bored and consistent.

    • anyone Interested in getting involved in a new sport.

    • There is no "5k race for ruckers." 

    • There are other “rucking events” that aren't just rucks. We just want to ruck and challenge ourselves against the ruck distance + load itself.

    • RRL keeps people engaged with a new ruck challenge each month. This helps them with consistently including rucking in their lifestyle, a goal to accomplish each month, and excitement/anticipation of "what's this month's challenge going to be?"

    • a backpack / rucksack that can carry a range of loads. MOST backpacks will satisfy this basic requirement. you don’t need any specialized bag.

    • a willingness to “strive in common” and challenge yourself alongside others around the world

  • We have tested and validated this concept through our work at Between the Ears where we put on an annual event called “The Vector Project” for participants all over the world and our extensive rucking experience in Special Forces.
    We have used the lessons learned to create The Ruck Race League.
