- **Event Name**: Liberty or Death Patched Ruck: East Branch Trail (Spartansburg)
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 07 Mar, 2026 at 08:00 am
- **Event Description**: Join us for a GORUCK Crawford County event featuring the Liberty or Death Ruck.

“Give me liberty, or give me death!”

Those words, spoken by Patrick Henry in 1775, weren’t comfortable—they were committed. He knew freedom would cost something. This ruck is a reminder of that truth.

At each mile, you’ll face a choice: LIBERTY or DEATH

?? LIBERTY = Patriotic Challenge
• Sing a patriotic song
• Recite the Preamble to the Constitution
• Recite a line from Patrick Henry
• List the Bill of Rights

? DEATH = Physical Challenge
• 10 ruck burpees
• 10 ruck squats
• 10 ruck presses
• 10 ruck push-ups

(Feeling strong? Go 3 rounds instead of 1.)

This isn’t just a workout. It’s a test of mindset. A reminder that growth doesn’t come from comfort. Show up ready to work. Ready to push. Ready to choose.

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.
