Embrace the Broken Ruck – A Challenge That Transforms Lives

The Broken Ruck Challenge isn’t just a physical event; it’s a life-changing experience that pushes you to your limits and redefines what you believe you’re capable of achieving. It’s more than carrying weight—it’s about shedding limits and discovering resilience.

Imagine this: 24 hours, 1.1 miles every hour, on the hour. Sounds straightforward, doesn’t it? But as the hours pass, the miles add up, and the weight on your back grows heavier, you’ll confront not just your physical endurance but the mental barriers we all carry.




What Is the Broken Ruck Challenge?

At its core, the Broken Ruck Challenge is an endurance event like no other. For 24 hours, participants complete 1.1 miles every hour. But it’s not just about rucking—it’s about facing yourself.


  • The Physical Challenge: The cumulative toll of 24 miles with a weighted rucksack will test your stamina and determination.

  • The Mental Battle: Every mile, every hour, you’ll fight the voice that says, “I can’t.” And with every victory, you’ll prove it wrong.

  • The Emotional Journey: By the 19th or 20th hour, many participants find themselves in moments of raw emotion. Anger, frustration, joy, determination—all flow freely as you push past what you thought was possible.


Dana’s Story – Strength Found in Struggle

The inaugural Broken Ruck Challenge left a lasting impact on participants like Dana Haight. Reflecting on her experience, she shared:

“I cried around 19-20 hours in, not because of the pain or the weight, but because I was angry at myself for thinking, ‘I can’t do this!’ How dare I let my body tell me I was too weak to finish? I set a goal, wiped my face, and got back up. With every step, I overcame doubt and proved to myself I was stronger than I ever believed.”

Stories like Dana’s remind us that the challenge is not just about completing miles but about discovering strength, resilience, and determination deep within.


More Than a Ruck – A Transformative Retreat

What sets the Broken Ruck apart from other endurance events is that it’s not just a challenge—it’s a retreat.

  • Unplug from the World: Step away from the chaos of daily life and immerse yourself in the breathtaking landscapes of the Texas Hill Country.

  • Reconnect with Others: Bond with a tribe of like-minded adventurers who will lift you up, encourage you, and share in every triumph.

  • Reflect on Life’s Journey: In the still moments between miles, find clarity and inspiration as you reconnect with your goals and purpose.


This is not just an event; it’s an opportunity to reset and recharge physically, mentally, and emotionally.


Why Take On the Broken Ruck Challenge?

This experience is about more than rucking. It’s about proving to yourself that you are capable of greatness, no matter your age or circumstances.

  • Push Your Limits: Face and conquer challenges you never thought possible.

  • Build Unshakable Resilience: Develop the mental toughness to tackle life’s toughest obstacles.

  • Find Your Tribe: Surround yourself with a community that uplifts, inspires, and believes in you.


A Weekend You’ll Never Forget

The Broken Ruck isn’t just a physical accomplishment; it’s a reminder that aging doesn’t mean slowing down. It’s about stepping up, embracing challenges, and discovering your strength.

  • Walk away knowing that you belong to the 1% of people who have pushed themselves this far.

  • Take pride in knowing you conquered your doubts and emerged stronger, more resilient, and ready for anything.

  • Leave with memories, friendships, and a renewed sense of purpose that will last a lifetime.
