Join us for San Diego Triton Ruck Club and Team RWB San Diego's monthly ALL LEVELS ruck around Lake MURRAY!
Adding another CHALLENGE to this Sunday's Lake Murray Ruck!
Monthly Rucking Challenges: RUCKTOBER Challenge:
https://ruckingchallenges.com/october-2025/
An Octoberfest Beer Maid has been known to carry as many as 12+ full steins of beer. You don’t get that kind of grip without some training. Enter: Ructoberfest.
This month we’ll get that grip warmed for up by grabbing some extra weight (kettle bell, water can, dumbbell, etc) and carry it by hand for the entire 4 mile ruck.
Difficulty can be increased as outlined below. Additional mileage can be added if you’re into that sort of thing.
Ruck Weight: 20-30 Pounds.
Challenge:
Serious Rucker: Grab a weight for each hand.
Regular Ruckers: Just 1 weight.
Newbie Rucker: Share the weight with a friend.

7AM
Kiowa Drive Trailhead
Look for the ruckers hanging by the picnic table
5540 Kiowa Dr, La Mesa, CA 91942
Scalable workout: Go out for an hour (thirty minutes out and back) or do the full route out and back route for 5.7 miles
Paved trail, excellent for beginners, small family members and dogs - OR HARD CHARGERS working to increase their ruck weight and pace times!
This ruck is scalable. If you're training for an event, come early, stay later, train heavy. If you just want to get out of the house, bring the kids - and let's go for a ruck. All levels welcome!

ABOUT RUCKING:
"What is rucking?" https://www.goruck.com/rucking-101
RUCKING 101
RUCK•ING [VERB] // Walking with a weighted rucksack (aka backpack). It implies action, energy, and purpose. Rucking requires strength, endurance, and character -- and builds it, too.

Attending this ruck is FREE of change - and you attend at YOUR OWN FREE WILL. YOU are responsible for YOUR SAFETY and health situation.

________________________________
ABOUT THE SAN DIEGO TRITON RUCK CLUB:
Triton Ruck Club was founded on the UC San Diego campus in early 2019 and became an official GORUCK club in April 2019. We merged with San Diego Rucking Club to become San Diego Triton Ruck Club in Fall 2020. We are the official ruck training partner of Team RWB San Diego and actively partner to host and ruck events all over San Diego County and Southern California. There are no dues, and you do not need to be a veteran, nor a part of the UC San Diego community to join. In 2022, our Northern California chapter formed in the San Jose region, led by a fierce set of experienced GRT.
Our rucking members range from beginners to elite endurance athletes training and executing Tier 1 rucking events. We support everyone and ALL LEVELS. We welcome ALL LEVELS and have a “you-do-you” policy regarding what gear you use and how much weight you ruck. Each person makes their own responsible choices to determine the ruck and weight appropriate for their training levels. No specific brands are required, but your experienced teammates will have recommendations and guidance.
MISSION:
San Diego Triton Ruck Club is an ALL LEVELS community of ruckers united in fitness through ruck training and rucking. As a community, we are committed to supporting endeavors benefitting local military and first responder families through charitable events and engagement.
