OUR STORY

I'm Simon, the founder of Ruckaway. My fitness journey wasn't pretty. I'd chase incremental gains on my runs and bike rides, only to be derailed by injuries that stunted progress for months. I'd get frustrated and focus entirely on lifting weights, only for the same thing to happen. Soon I started passing up physical activities with friends, for fear of aggravating old injuries.

Then I stumbled onto rucking. It was a gamechanger for me - low-impact training that simultaneously built cardio and muscle. Rucking finally allowed me to develop balanced, all-around fitness. Not only did I feel more resilient in daily life, but I regained the confidence to participate in sports and activities I had avoided for years out of fear of re-injury.

That discovery inspired me to share rucking's benefits by establishing Ruckaway here in Australia. I hope it can be a gamechanger for you too.
