This virtual challenge invites you to experience what Roman legionaries endured during training—covering 18.4 miles while carrying 45 pounds, all within a 6-hour time limit. Inspired by the ancient "military pace" that recruits had to master before even touching a weapon, this second chance at the original LEGION MARCH offers participants from around the world a chance to earn a challenge coin, dog tag, and certificate. There are no leaderboards or additional prizes, just a straightforward test of endurance based on historical military standards.
