In the 1984 cult classic, Gremlins, a gadget salesman buys a special gift for his son at a store in Chinatown. The shopkeeper reluctantly sells him a cute but mysterious creature known as a “mogwai,” with a warning to never expose him to bright light, water, or to feed him after midnight. When his son fails to heed these rules, he accidentally unleashes a horde of malevolent creatures on a small town.
Welcome to the Gremlins Ruck! For this month’s Halloween-themed 80s callout, you and your team will similarly fail to heed the shopkeeper’s warnings, unleashing some mischievous Good Livin’ on your city. First, you’ll need to step off after midnight. Next, you’ll ruck to a body of water; it could be a creek, a fountain, a pond, or even a splash pad. What matters is that you all get completely immersed…or at least drenched from head to toe. (Bonus cool points for doing hydro-burpees as a team!) Then head out to ruck 4 miles or more.
THE DETAILS:
4 participants or more
Minimum distance is 4 miles
Must begin AFTER midnight
Must get completely soaked/immersed at the beginning of the ruck
Bonus cool points for hydro-burpees as a team
