The New Mexico Army National Guard invites all New Mexicans to “Be all You Can Be” at the Duke City Army Combat Fitness Test Challenge this Saturday, July 29, 2023 at 7:30 am at UNM’s Johnson Field.
This free event is a great opportunity to experience for yourself the rigorous physical fitness requirements our Soldiers in the Army National Guard must meet in order to serve. Get to know your NM National Guard – learn more about your friends, coworkers and neighbors who wear the uniform in times of need, like wildfire and flood season.
See how your skills stack up alongside our Soldiers as you negotiate the 3 Rep Maximum Deadlift, the Standing Power Throw, the Sprint-Drag-Carry, the Hand-Release Push-Up, the Plank and the 2-Mile Run!
There are prizes for the top overall athletes.
Registered participants will receive an ACFT Challenge t-shirt. Military members are welcome to wear their service’s physical training uniform, or civilian fitness attire.
Register using the attached QR Code and we’ll see you on the field!
