Beast of Burden Mountain Ruck Race and Gala evening

SUMMITX MOUNTAIN RUCK RACE The first of its kind. This is not an ordinary hike. This is a race against the clock, a test of endurance, grit and your ability to carry the burden. 🎒 LOAD UP Carry at least 20% of your body weight in animal feed. 🥾 TAKE ON THE TERRAIN Conquer 10.5 km of mountain terrain with your burden on your back. ⏱️ BEAT THE CLOCK You have 5 hours to reach the finish line. 🏅 EARN YOUR MEDAL Finish within the cutoff and you qualify for your Mountain Ruck Race medal. 🏆 FIGHT FOR THE WIN Fastest finishers will battle for great prizes and the glory of being among the first Mountain Ruck Race champions. But this burden has a purpose. Every bag of feed carried across the mountain will be donated after the race to The Blue Donkey Animal Sanctuary. 🫏❤️ So when your shoulders burn and your legs start screaming, remember: You’re not carrying a burden for nothing. You’re carrying it for those who cannot carry it themselves. REGISTRATION & WEIGH-IN 📅 15 January: 15:00–18:00 📅 Race Day: From 06:00 LOAD YOUR PACK. CARRY THE BURDEN. BEAT THE CLOCK. FEED THE DONKEYS. Are you tough enough to carry the burden? Join us for a Gala Event after the race.
