Why polar plunge?
Because there’s a patch, of course.
This ruck is scalable, as weight is optional to your training level. You can choose to do the plunge and/or do the ruck - at any mileage you prefer. We will ruck as a team, but if you want to do more, or less, miles - you're welcome.
We will be rucking on the beach, on sand. GREAT training opportunity if you're doing PATHFINDER Ruck Training and want to complete one of your qualifying challenges: a 6 Mile Beach Ruck.
Important:
• Hydration! Don't leave home without water!

ABOUT RUCKING:
"What is rucking?" https://www.goruck.com/rucking-101
RUCKING 101

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.
