I'm pleased to announce that I will be participating in the 2019 Tough Ruck marathon. In doing so I will be raising money for the Military Friends Foundation who help military members and their family's who have fallen on hard times. Ill be rucking in full uniform with 45lbs on my back for the cause. I asask you to donate what you can to help those warriors in need. Any and all donations are happily accepted, they are even tax deductible for those who are concerned with that. If you can't donate yourself don't worry but please share with your friends and family and help me smash the $450 dollar goal I have to reach. Thank you for your time and stay tuned for updates as I train for the 26.2 mile beast of task.
Below you can read Tough RUck's mission statement and if you have any question feel free to reach out to me anytime. My email is bovee.joey@yahoo.com. (Donation deadline is April 1st.)
"Tough Ruck is a group of military and civilians whose sole purpose is to Ruck in honor and in memory of our Fallen Service Members, Police, Firefighters and EMTs, while raising funds to support military families in times of need. We will walk a 26.2 mile course with our Rucks and carry the names of our Fallen comrades with us.
On April 15, 2013, the Tough Ruck members were at the finish line of the Boston Marathon and joined the first responders to help those that were injured by the horrific blasts. They truly exemplify the best of what our Nation is. Today the Ruck happens the Saturday before Boston Marathon Monday in Concord, Massachusetts on the original trails of the Revolutionary War. Tough Ruck is the only Ruck partnered with the Boston Marathon and finishers are awarded the official Boston Marathon Medals and receive recognition from the Boston Athletic Association."
