Firefighter Benoit Coussement passed away on March 10, 2026. He joined the North Kansas City Fire Department in 2024, and was close to finishing paramedic school.

We have put together this ruck to honor Danny. This year we will also be honoring Benoit. This ruck is open to the public, but be prepared for a 3.1 mile hike through North Kansas City. We will meet in the lot across from the NKCFD station #1 at 0800hrs sharp.

At the end of the ruck, we will hold a free pancake breakfast!

We will stay on the sidewalk as much as we can. Go at your own pace and stop at the red lights until you get the go ahead ??

-This ruck is first responder focused to honor Danny and Benoit.
-We encourage anything that will represent them such as shirts and blue/red line flags!
-Please use this ruck as a time to reflect.
-Please use this time to share with others how these men have impacted your life. 
-Feel free to wear a weighted vest or sandbags to make this more challenging. -Keep in mind it will be hot outside.
-Be smart and bring your own water and snacks.
- BE RESPECTFUL. Do not block the street. Wait at lights until pedestrians are allowed to cross the street. Do not litter. This should all go without saying, but again be respectful. 
-Please share/invite your friends to get this out to the public. We would love everyone to join.
