Ruck It Up

03/09/2026

After much deliberation, we regret to say that Ruck It Up will be taking a break.

We are forever grateful for all of the support from the community, businesses, schools, volunteers, Journey to Hope and of course the many participants over these past five years. In 5 years we have been fortunate enough to have raised over $35 000 for mental health initiatives here in Moose Jaw.

With that said, Ruck It Up is not saying goodbye, but just taking a break from our annual event.

We have some ideas that we will share in time, RuckTember will be back again this September and we will try to have some pop up rucks to keep getting people out on those trails 👊

It has been a great five years of seeing people out on the trails, learning about the benefits of rucking, openly talking about mental health and helping out our community.

Thank you and stayed tuned to this page for more information.

In September, Ruck It Up put on "Rucktember". Participants would ruck for 20 min per day and encouraged to take pictures while on their ruck. As a group we were privileged to see pics from across North and South America! Thank to you all that joined us and a big thank you to the sponsors that supported our prizes. Rosie's On River Street , Supplement World, and GRIT Training all contributed. Thank you so much. These prizes were given out to people who took pictures and we wanted to share with you the top pic of the month. Congrats to Rebecca Handy on this great pic of Moose Jaw.

Look for upcoming events from Ruck it up this winter and our main event coming next spring!!

We would like to thank everyone that came out for our 5th annual ruck, this may have been one of the best, especially for participants!

Thank you again to all the sponsors, to the business that donated to the penny parade this year (Rosie's On River, Boh's Cycle, Nic's Barber Shop, Pet Value, Supplement World & Prairie Burn Candle), to Mrs Ubell at Sunningdale and her grade 1 class for painting our mental health rocks, to Keon's Garden Centre for donating the rocks again, Co-op for donating water and of course the volunteers that helped out today!
