RUCK4HIT
Ruck4HIT is a team-based ruck relay across Cape Cod that spans more than 200 miles and passes through all 15 towns of the Cape. The event covers the route from Falmouth to Provincetown and back, with a midpoint team challenge at the Pilgrim Monument and a finish at the Cape Cod Fairgrounds followed by a Finish Line Party. The overall event takes place over approximately 36 hours.
Three divisions are offered: Jethro, Jones, and HELOS. The Jethro and Jones divisions complete the full 200+ mile course and both team challenges. The HELOS division covers about 100+ miles and completes a single team challenge.
Teams are organized as relays. Teams require a minimum of 7 ruckers and 2 drivers. Across all divisions participants ruck 2 to 4 mile legs while carrying a 10 to 20 pound rucksack. The rucksack is presented as a symbol for burdens carried by military members and veterans.
The event was created in collaboration with local veterans, first responders, active-duty service members, and community supporters. Proceeds support Heroes In Transition, Inc. The event is described as grounded in a promise to carry the load together, honor those who serve, and never leave a fallen comrade behind.
