- **Event Name**: Recon the Routine Ruck: Goddard-McKeever Trail (Sandy Lake)
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 28 Feb, 2026 at 08:00 am
- **Event Description**: Join us for a GORUCK Crawford County event featuring a chance to earn your Recon Ruck patch!

Back in the ’80s we learned that knowing is half the battle—and when it comes to rucking, knowing your options keeps things fresh. This Recon the Routine Ruck is about breaking out of the usual routes by scouting and rucking somewhere new: a park you’ve never hit, a different neighborhood, or an off-road trail the club hasn’t explored yet. Do a little recon, bring the crew along for miles and smiles, take in new sights and sounds, then wrap it up with beers (or your beverage of choice) at ENDEX.

Date: Saturday, February 28th
Time: 8 AM
Route Leader: Donavan Lacy
Meeting Location: Lake Wilhelm Boat Launch #1
Distance: 5.7 miles
Difficulty: Moderate
Cost: Free 

Essentials to bring: Water, appropriate footwear, appropriate clothing for the weather, and a positive attitude.

No ruck? No problem! Walkers are always welcome to join us with zero shame. Empty backpacks work too! We all carry different weights according to our personal fitness goals.
Rucking is a form of physical activity that involves walking with a loaded backpack (or ‘rucksack’) over various distances and terrains. (Plate carriers and sandbags are also welcome.) A moderate amount of added weight can produce the same stimulus and metabolic benefit as running, while also strengthening the legs and lower back. Rucking is similar to hiking and is often used as conditioning by backcountry hunters, endurance athletes, and those in the military and emergency services.
