FAQs
What is rucking?

It's a walk with a heavy backpack on.

Is it fun?

Depends what your definition of fun is, but I think so.

Is this challenging?

It's as hard as you want it to be, but I'll keep it pretty chill. Use only as much weight as you're comfortable with, and I can modify any exercises for you as well.

Is this for beginners?

Yes! Anything can be modified.

The Rules
  • Chest touches the target.
  • Arms lock out.
  • Body stays straight.
  • Knee push-ups are allowed if necessary.
  • Teammates count each other's reps.
  • Referee has final say.
  • We will have referees walking around and use an honor system for counting reps. Don't be that guy cheating at a charity event.

Each person on the 1st place team gets $50 and picks a prize from the sponsor of their choice. Each person on the 2nd place team gets $25 and also picks a prize from the sponsor of their choice. The best mustache takes home the Golden Mo trophy plus a prize from the sponsor of their choice. Cash prizes are provided by Overload Strength, so every dollar donated goes to Movember. Sponsor prizes are donated by local Madison businesses.

FAQs
Do I need a team to sign up?

Teams are 4 people. Have a team? Register together using the sign-up form below. Don't have one? Register anyway, check the box saying you need teammates, and we'll match you with a team.

How do I pay the $10 per person donation?

The donation is $10 per person, so $40 for a full team of 4. Each person can donate ahead of time through our Movember fundraising page, or pay at the door on event day.

What if I can't do a lot of push-ups?

That's fine. The 600 reps are split across your team of 4, so everyone contributes what they can, and knee push-ups are allowed if necessary. Every rep has to meet the standard, but this is about having fun and supporting a good cause.

How is the Best Mustache winner picked?

The crowd votes. The winner takes home the Golden Mo trophy and picks a prize from the sponsor of their choice, right after the 1st place team chooses theirs.
