I AM TOUGH RUCKING FOR AMERICA'S FALLEN MILITARY & FIRST RESPONDERS
Training for the Tough Ruck 2025 has allowed me to focus on a new athletic goal while honoring family and friends who have served in the military and as first responders. Taking on this challenge with two of my best friends (Kevin Morency and Kevin Flaherty) has made this a rewarding experience so far. I am rucking for those who have made the ultimate sacrifice protecting our country as well as first responders who turn towards dangers to help others. Being at the Boston Marathon in 2013 gave me a whole new perspective for the selflessness and courage that first responders display each and everyday. I am also rucking for Marc Burns, a hockey teammate of mine who I have kept close to me since he passed away the day before his 13th birthday.
I would appreciate any contribution towards this amazing initiative. Thank you very much for your support and consideration as I prepare to take on the Tough Ruck 2025!
Note: This April, I will be joining Tough Ruck Nation to complete a marathon with a weighted rucksack (backpack). Tough Ruck 26.2 Boston is an elite group of 1000 who ruck to HONOR AMERICA'S FALLEN MILITARY & FIRST RESPONDERS. We humbly carry the names of the Fallen on our rucks as they will NEVER BEEN FORGOTTEN. We will also be raising critical funds for our Warriors. This is where we need your help! The basic ideal that drives our efforts is simple: as much as our Warriors have sacrificed, they and their families deserve the best care and support available in their hour of need. Your tax deductible donation literally provides a lifeline to a Warrior.
