The Honor Lap is a single loop of the same course completed at the participant's own pace. Registration for the Honor Lap directs funds to Northeast Slopes. Check-in may occur while the event is underway.
Last Rucker Standing

Pack weight will be checked at the start, at the finish, and randomly during the event. Ruckers who complete eight hours receive a medal.
