2nd Annual Oklahoma Memorial Trail Ruck-Off Description:
Guthrie has been chosen for the second annual Oklahoma Memorial Trail Ruck-Off. We are hosting the event to raise awareness about veterans' issues, support military recruitment efforts, and promote the newly established Oklahoma Military Trails.

This year's ruck-off is named in honor of Pvt Oscar J. Upham, a U.S. Marine who earned the Medal of Honor during the Boxer Rebellion. Pvt. Upham passed away at the age of 77 in Guthrie, Oklahoma.

The march will start at 7:00 a.m. on May 18. Participants can choose between a four-mile or a twelve-mile route, with or without a 35-pound ruck. The closing ceremony is scheduled for noon at the WPA Armory, located at 724 E. Logan Ave., Guthrie, Oklahoma. Everyone will march the first four miles together. However, at mile four, the participants on the twelve-mile route will continue on their path.

Everyone is encouraged to join us on May 18 in Guthrie, whether you're walking, cheering from the sidelines, or attending the closing ceremony. Your presence will help us honor and raise awareness for our veterans. To register for the event, visit https://calendly.com/cloverleafprecision/ruck-off-2024/.
