​The Carry Rucking Club: Queen Anne Movement Meetup

​Saturday August 29, 2026
10:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Meet @ Kerry Park

​Start your weekend off right with The Carry Rucking Club—a guided walk designed to help women move their bodies, get out in nature, build strength and connect IRL.

​We’ll meet at 10:00 AM at Kerry Park and depart by 10:15 AM, heading west along the ridge for a 50-minute brisk walk (~3 miles) along the classic Upper Queen Anne loop—featuring views and varying terrain. Expect Zone 2–3 effort most of the time, with an optional spicy Zone 4 push when we hit stairs or hills. We’ll finish back at the park with a 10-15 minute strength snack (quick full-body circuit, good burn guaranteed) led by a local fitness trainer.

​Weighted vests are welcome but not required—come as you are. The first five attendees can borrow and try The Carry Weighted Vest during the meetup.

​What to expect:

• ​Guided group walk/ruck

• ​Rolling hills, steady elevation, paved sidewalks

• ​Strength circuit to finish (maybe a set of stairs if we find)

• ​Conversation + community

• ​Fresh air and a solid start to your day

• ​A group photo + captures and tags by all encouraged

​What to bring:

• ​Comfortable walking shoes

• ​A weighted vest if you have

• ​Water if you'll need during or after

​Route

​We’re starting at Kerry Park and heading west along the ridge for nonstop water + mountain views before looping back along the east side of Upper Queen Anne.

​This meetup is part of a series under The Carry Rucking Club events across Seattle and beyond—designed to make movement fun and approachable, while making you stronger.

​About The Carry

​The Carry is the first premium rucking brand built specifically for women. We couldn’t find a vest we loved, so we made one: comfortable, adjustable in weight, washable, functional, and designed to look as good as it performs. We're on a mission to help women age powerfully—one weighted step at a time.

​Order The Carry Weighted Vest—limited quantities in this first production run. Ships July.

​About The Carry Rucking Club

​The Carry Rucking Club is a growing community of women who walk, ruck, build strength together in real life. Our meetups are about movement, connection, and confidence—not pace or perfection. We believe in showing up, supporting one another, and doing physically hard things together.
