31 miles for 31heroes Race Description
31Miles for 31Heroes is a 31 mile ruck through the night to honor the lives of the Heroes of Extortion 17. Participants will carry 2 bricks in their rucks, one to represent the lives of our fallen and the other to represent the burden carried by their families.
Periodically, Ruckers stop to read the bios of these warriors and raise a drink (of water) to their memories. All funds raised will benefit 31Heroes, a non-profit which serves to impact the lives of our nation’s heroes and their families, while remembering the fallen.
You can also ruck, walk, jog 1 mile each day in the month of August to honor Extortion 17.
Join us in DC, Tampa or create your own.
