Join us for a GORUCK Crawford County event!
Rucking is a form of physical activity that involves walking with a loaded backpack (or ‘rucksack’) over various distances and terrains. (Plate carriers and sandbags are also welcome.) A moderate amount of added weight can produce the same stimulus and metabolic benefit as running, while also strengthening the legs and lower back. Rucking is similar to hiking and is often used as conditioning by backcountry hunters, endurance athletes, and those in the military and emergency services.
Date: Friday, September 26th.
Time: 6:00 PM.
Route Leader: Donavan L.
Meeting Location: The Dollar Tree parking lot in Meadville.
