The Rocket City Ruck Club (Facebook Group Link) is a Northern Alabama GoRuck-affiliated Club. We have occasional club events, and several people doing their own workout schedules. They have a couple Pathfinder Ruck Training small-group leaders in the club, too.
Feel free to join the club! The Bataan Death March Memorial is virtual this year. You can Run, Walk, and/or Ruck either 26 or 13 miles. We are going to do it as a group probably April 16 Friday night, most likely in Decatur on a 5-mile course. I think there is a Steel City Rucking Club for central Alabama. |

Is there a site for us rubes that refuse to have anything to do with FB? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Is there a site for us rubes that refuse to have anything to do with FB? Sadly, GoRuck and most of its clubs are FB based. They have InstaGram presence if you're on that. Pathfinder is not FB based. Nor is Bataan. You can sign up for GoRuck events here. GoRuck also has monthly things; this month is Selma 54. People interested can PM me, and I'll send you the club events when they happen. |

To me part of this ruck thing is to learn about things like how to pack my rucksack, how to wear it, pacing, etc.
Thanks @RickSmaugh for the motivation and finding these cool places. And thanks @axl for the wise and insightful lesson - "There is no hill, only left foot..."

Great march, little windy on the river but scenery was really nice. Pace was challenging for an old guy but we moved right along. Enjoyed it.

Good ruck.
I bumped my pack up to 30lb. Smaugh is at 45lb. Axl, well, he's at whatever he damn well pleases. ;) We are now consistently under 20 min / mile over the whole 6 miles. If you've been wondering if you should join us, you should join us!  Attached File |

When you add it all up...yep.
Drive time there and back makes it 4hrs for me. I only get to hunt on the weekends, if i get to hunt. If I don't get to go on saturday, I'm doing everything I can to go at some point on Sunday Last, but not least...Turkey hunting is in my top 5 of things to do. I only get 6wks out of the year to do it. |
