Check out this off-road adventure through the beautiful farm lands of South Glastonbury beginning and ending at the Hops on the Hill Brewery.

Ruck or run your choice of distances including 5k or 5-mile, then enjoy a fabulous finish line party with endless bowls of chili (meat and veggie options), s’mores and a freshly-brewed pint from Hops on the Hill Brewery (non-alcoholic beverages available too). All participants who register by November 12 are guaranteed to get a souvenir travel soup mug and a cool finisher's patch.

The 5k Ruck features optional ruck-inspired challenges (squats, lunges, bear crawls!) every 1/2 mile to amp up the fun and fitness!

Race is professionally timed and the top 3 Male & Female Finishers in each event win huge homemade pies donated by Lyman Orchards; overall winners earn ODO swag too! We've got a special incentive for teams thanks to Hoka & Fleet Feet: the top 5 teams with the highest number of participants will win a free pair of Hoka shoes to give to one lucky team member.

The 5-mile races begin at 10:00am; 5k at 10:15am and Kids Run at 11:15am

Registration fee is $40 - day of registration is $45. Soup bowl & patch are NOT guaranteed for those who register after November 10.

New this year: The Lil’ Gobblers Activity Program! This special program for kids aged 4+ will keep them entertained (and safe) while Mom/Dad run/ruck. Kids program begins at 10am and culminates with the kids run at 11:15am. Cost for the Kids’ Activity Program is $15/child.

This race will forever hold a special place in our hearts as we celebrate the life of our friend and brother Henry Bender who was taken from us too soon.
