About

Join us for this fundraising event for Troop 1948. Troop 1948 will be using the funds to refurbish a trailer to help store and carry gear for all of our adventures. This troop is chartered by our friends at Kyle VFW Post 12058. 5K and 5K Ruck Walk will start at the same time. Each will have its own set of Overall Male/Female and Age Group Awards

Ruck Walk rules - wear a backpack with at least 20 pounds of weight - however much is right for you. This is walk and based on the honor system (don't run) - all in good fun. Wear as much weight as you would like (at least 20 pounds), walk in honor or in memory of someone, or just to see if you can accomplish the challenge.

DOG and STROLLER are add ons and mean you will have a bib assigned to your dog or your stroller in addition to your own, which means whoever is running or rucking with the dog or stroller must register also.  A dog or a stroller must be accompanied by a human!  This is for a bib only.
