    Frequently Asked Questions

    Please reach us at ruckthatcanada@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

    For now we are a free club, but any donations to cover expenses like this site etc are appreciated.

    No, BUT, as you get more advanced you will probably start upgrading your "kit"

    Starting out you will need:

    a well fitting pair of shoes

    a backpack (preferably with a waist-belt) 

    And some form of weight. 

    I use 5lb and 10lb sandbags, but  a 1 Liter bottle of water weighs 2.2lbs, that same bottle filled with sand will weigh 3.4lbs. You could add standard weight plates, medicine balls, books... You get the idea. I like starting with sand or water because if I have over-estimated how much I can carry it's easy to dump some out.

    Also, a pair of garden gloves is great if you plan on doing the extra callisthenics we add to each ruck 

    Rucking was first introduced by the military to train soldiers to carry heavy loads over long distances. So, while you don't need to be SEAL fit to join, if walking at a good pace for an hour is outside your current abilities maybe start smaller and join us once you reach that milestone.

    For a regular ruck, you should bring a backpack (duh), water, snacks, and a small first-aid kit. If rain is in the forecast, rain gear is a great choice. Daytime ruckers should also add sunscreen, hat and sunglasses. We will provide a detailed list for our Mother Rucker in October

    We love dogs, I'd love to bring mine along, BUT in fairness to everyone we need to be pet free

    A child in a stroller is your choice, but because we set a brisk pace and need everyone to finish together we are a 16+ club

    Unless you have developed some super power, you will probably get wet. Ruckers don't quit because of a little bit of weather

    If you encounter wildlife while hiking, give them plenty of space and do not approach them. Make noise to make your presence known and slowly back away. Do not feed or try to touch the animals.
