Hip Carry for Long Rucks + Heavy Loads The ability to shift the weight around different parts of the body can be a lifesaver on a long ruck. The Padded Hip Belt allows you to rest more of your ruck’s weight on your hips with the added comfort of hip padding. When rucking significant distances or time (like at a GORUCK event), having a Padded Hip Belt lets you give your shoulders a break from time to time. A padded stabilizer belt pulls the bottom of your rucksack inward around your hips or belly and keeps it in place, minimizing side-to-side sway and stabilizing the load on your back.

Welcome to the 12 Mile Timed Ruck. This kind of ruck march has been historically utilized by the US Army, and it’s an excellent opportunity to get your mind right, work on your pace, and test the gear you’ve chosen for GORUCK’s Heavy, Tough, or City Ruck events. You’ll need to either maintain a 17:30 minute pace the entire time or intersperse some ruck shuffles with your regular rucking pace in order to make the time hack of 3.5 hours. NOTE: Running with a ruck is NOT recommended under any circumstances. We suggest planning a route that is as flat as possible and avoids traffic crossings.

GORUCK X CARRYOLOGY BERSERKER VIKING MACV TRAVELER BOOTS The GORUCK MACV boots are designed for serious adventure, training, and events. For the GRXC3, we refined them for modern travel and exploration. We eliminated drainage holes to prevent cold, wet feet in urban environments. A waterproof synthetic gusset on the tongue enhances water resistance, while the water-resistant leather construction keeps feet dry in deeper puddles.
