Welcome to our 2nd Annual Iron Legion Charity Ruck 2014. The event will start at 10AM on Saturday December 6th and depart from our new Crossfit Iron Legion location at 217 SE 1st Avenue, Ocala, FL 34471. Be prepared with the items below to help you successfully complete the Ruck. We plan on the event lasting between 4-6 hours and going for approximately 6-10 miles. Any questions…let us know! See you on Saturday!
 
What do I need to participate in this year’s Iron Legion Charity Ruck Event???

  • You. Yes, you.
  • A ruck – backpack or official ruck. Either will do.
  • Gloves – not required but helpful – Mechanix suggested
  • Shoes – tennis shoes or boots are suggested
  • Weight – if you weigh under 150lbs then you need at least 8-12 lbs. You can do this by using 2 standard bricks which typically weigh 4-6 lbs each. If you weigh over 150 lbs then you need at least 16-24 lbs. You can accomplish this by using 4 standard bricks which typically weigh 4-6 lbs. It is strongly suggested to wrap your bricks with duct tape and bubble wrap to protect your back and your ruck!
  • H20 – accomplish this through water bottles or a hydration bladder such as Source or Camelbak.
  • $20 – this is cab fare to get you back home. Don’t worry though, your team will help you make it! If you still have this $20 left over at the end we typically ask for a donation to the charity!
  • Lastly you need the desire to have fun, never quit and the willingness to work as team.
