Official Project Grit was born at rock bottom.
We know what it’s like to feel lost, trapped in addiction, buried in shame, stuck in the cycle.
But we also know this: Pain can become purpose.
Our mission is to turn adversity into fuel.
Official Project Grit is a Texas-based endurance rucking movement built on the belief that humans are made for more. We create events, challenges, and storytelling experiences that combine grit, teamwork, and history to push people beyond mediocrity.
Rucking is simply walking with weight on your back. It’s one of the most effective ways to build strength, endurance, and resilience. At Official Project Grit, rucking is more than fitness, it’s a tool for growth, connection, and proving to yourself what you’re capable of.
Every event is designed with meaning behind the miles. From retracing the 75-mile march of the Immortal 32 to climbing Texas’ highest peaks, each challenge blends history, hardship, and camaraderie. We don’t just cover distance, we carry weight together, physically and mentally.
Start simple: walk with a weighted pack 2–3 times per week, gradually increasing distance and weight. Add strength training and conditioning as you progress. Sign up for our newsletter, we share free tips to help you prepare.
Subscribe to our Newsletter, follow us on Instagram (@officialprojectgrit), and check our Ruck Events page. That’s where we drop announcements, training opportunities, and sign-ups.
