This is not a race. There is no finish line.
There is only one rule that matters: show up every hour or go home.
Most people can do 2.5 miles. Very few can do it 20+ times in a row on no sleep, deteriorating legs, and a body that is begging to stop. That is where Buffalo Mentality is built.
Every hour, on the hour. Miss the start and you are out. No exceptions. No grace period.
Complete the loop with a minimum of 25 lbs. Return to base camp before time is called. The course does not get shorter. The clock does not care how you feel.
Whatever time you have left between rounds is yours. Sleep if you can. Eat. Treat your feet. It goes faster than you think.
Ring the bell. Turn in your bib. Then get back out there and cheer on the ones still moving. The community does not stop when you do.
Every rucker carries a minimum of 25 lbs for the full event. No exceptions. This is not a casual walk. Plan accordingly.
You must be at the start when the horn sounds. Late means out. There is no review process.
Every loop must be completed in full. Shortcuts are elimination. No exceptions.
25 lb minimum must be carried for every round of the event.
No outside transportation between course sections. You move under your own power.
Use whatever time you have between rounds however you need. Just be back on time.
When you are done, ring the bell and turn in your bib. Then stay and support the ones still out there.
25 lb minimum. You provide it. You carry it.
No meals provided. Plan your fueling strategy for a potential 48-hour effort.
Bring everything you need to stay hydrated for the full event. Do not underestimate this.
Bring a tent, canopy, or cot for your base camp setup. This is your home for the weekend.
Required for all overnight rounds. The course does not stop because the sun goes down.
Tape, balm, extra socks. Treat blisters during rest windows. Your feet are your equipment.
