NEW! PATHFINDER Forward™ is our most popular training program, and you've been asking for a detailed Training Guide to make training planning EVEN EASIER!
PATHFINDER Forward™ is our Introductory Training Plan. It's perfect to train for a shorter-distance endurance event or just to bring your fitness up to the next level.
PATHFINDER works because YOU build it. We give you the requirements - miles, workouts, and Challenges - and you fit them into your calendar based on what works for YOU. Along the way, you'll get involved in our incredible community, meet inspiring mentors who are there to help if you need it, and get all the tools to start on your path to rucking for life. PATHFINDER isn't a day-by-day workout plan...because they don't work! Instead, build up your discipline and motivation through the guidance and support of the PATHFINDER team. We give you all the tools - you build them for your success.
