In this powerful and personal episode, Kayla sits down with Travis Chapman to talk about how a simple walk with weight—aka rucking—turned into something bigger.
After discovering rucking less than a year ago, Travis found a sustainable way to stay active and a newfound way to drive change. After watching his wife navigate life with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis—two chronic conditions that are often misunderstood and under-supported—Travis is channeling his love for rucking into a meaningful cause to raise awareness and funds for arthritis research.
If you or someone you love is navigating chronic illness, you’ll enjoy this conversation, which goes beyond fitness to explore patience, flexibility, and tips to support a spouse or loved one living with chronic pain.
About the May Arthritis Challenge
Travis created RUCKFWD to raise awareness for arthritis and support research through the University of Florida. You can participate by completing a 1 mile, 5K and/or 11K walk or ruck.
