Started a 5M step ruck challenge in March 🎒
Hey,
I set myself a challenge to hit 5 million ruck steps in a year, currently close to a million within 2 months
Currently at:
954k steps rucked so far
19% done
303 days left
~13.3k steps/day needed from here
🎒 is usually around 8–10kg / 18–22lbs
Mostly weight plates + about 2L of water. By the end of the session the water’s usually gone, so technically the load gets lighter as I go lol
Not gonna lie, some days the motivation is there, other days it’s literally just “put the ruck on and move”
Biggest thing I’ve learned so far is consistency matters way more than huge single days. The steps stack up faster than expected if you just keep showing up
Also.. one bad day doesn’t matter much in the long run.. it’s easy to make up for it over time if you stay consistent overall
