Ruckapalooza DC - City Ruck Weekend - In Support of Global War on Terrorism Memorial Foundation
In 2018, nearly 700 of you gathered near Georgetown Waterfront Park for the first-ever 50 Miler City Ruck in DC. We stepped off at 9PM on May 17th — and the skies immediately opened up. Torrential rain turned it into the legendary Immersion Star Course. If you were there, you remember soaked boots, heavy rucks, and hunting for public bathroom hand dryers just to stay warm. It was gritty. It was chaotic. It was unforgettable.
We’ve been back every May since. This year we’re bringing it back bigger and better — same iconic miles, plus on-site partners, activations, challenges, cold beers, and the kind of community that makes it all worth it. It’s our kind of fun.
