You don’t have to run to line up at a race. In this episode of Just Ruck It, I take you inside the Pound the Ground 5K — a local run/walk to support the Veterans Outreach Center — and show you how I turned it into a rucking win. From choosing weight and gear, to race-day etiquette, to the unexpected joy of finishing strong after a setback, this episode is your guide to bringing a ruck to your first 5K.
Whether you’re new to rucking or looking for your next challenge, you’ll walk away with practical tips, inspiration, and maybe even the push you need to sign up for that local charity 5K.
