Built in collaboration with The Special Forces Foundation, this ruck is a 30K march (walk/run) with a rucksack weighing 11kg at both the start and finish line. Dry non-perishable goods are encouraged to be used for the 24.25lbs and can be donated at the end of the event to fight hunger in our community.
Active-duty, veterans, and civilians are all welcome to participate in this challenging event. Finish within the allotted time to be awarded the coveted Norwegian Foot March Badge and Certificate! All participants will receive t-shirts, headbands, and a finishing medal upon completion.
The Memorial Day Ruck March kicks off the Colorado Challenge Series and sets the tone for everything that follows.
The Colorado Challenge Series is a four‑event gauntlet built for those who crave purpose, community, and a little bit of grit. Each event stacks intensity, endurance, and camaraderie, pushing participants to show up stronger every time. Complete all four and you’ll earn the exclusive 2026 Challenge Series Medal, a hard‑won symbol of resilience, commitment, and support for the veteran community at Mt. Carmel Veterans Service Center.
