The ODO Gobbler Run & Ruck

Open Doors Outdoors’ final event of the year – let’s also make it our biggest! Burn off those Thanksgiving feast calories with this off-road adventure through the beautiful farm lands of South Glastonbury beginning and ending at the Hops on the Hill Brewery. Ruck or run your choice of distances including 5k or 5-mile, then enjoy a fabulous finish line party with endless bowls of chili (meat and veggie options), s’mores and a freshly-brewed pint from Hops on the Hill Brewery (non-alcoholic beverages available too).Finishers receive a cool finisher's patch (ruck) or medal (run). Race is professionally timed and the top Male & Female Finishers in each event win a pair of Hoka shoes of their choice (up to $180 value) courtesy of Fleet Feet Glastonbury while 2nd & 3rd place win ODO swag. Runners start at 10:00am; Ruckers at 10:05am and Kids Run at 11:15am Ruckers: Standard ruck weights are 20# for men and 10# for women. You do not need a special ruck pack - a weight vest or even a backpack loaded with weight works. In fact, we encourage you to load your backpack with canned goods and/or peanut butter that can then be donated to Veterans Basecamp's food pantry. VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! …
