The IM ABLE Foundation mission is simple: We remove obstacles that keep people with challenges on the sidelines, providing them access to programs and equipment tailored to their needs and a community of all abilities to support them.

Ruck your way at Ruck & Roll!

Join us Saturday, November 14, at Blue Marsh National Recreation Area in Wernersville, PA. Rucking is walking or hiking with a weighted pack, a way to build strength, endurance, and resilience.

Choose the distance and challenge that works for you. You can use a weighted pack, a weighted vest, or no added weight.

Choose your route:
• Short: approximately 3–4 miles
• Mid: approximately 8–9 miles
• Long: approximately 13–14 miles

Choose a division:
Ranger: Competitive heavy ruck (Men: 45 lb | Women: 35 lb)
Scout: Competitive ruck (Men: 30 lb | Women: 20 lb)
Cadet: Competitive division for participants 15 and younger or 70 and older (Men: 20 lb | Women: 10 lb)
Infantry: Open division, just for fun. Choose your pack weight, or go with no added weight.

Whether you’re chasing a challenge or enjoying the trail at your own pace, there’s a place for you at Ruck & Roll!

“WE LOVE YOU, CHRIS!” 💚

Both IM FIT sessions on Thursday ended with those words, as we came together to remember and honor our Founder, Chris Kaag

We dedicated both classes to Chris, wearing our green “No Excuses Just Move” tribute shirts, taking a moment to remember him, and giving it our all during the workouts.

There was so much about IM FIT that Chris loved: seeing our participants smile, watching friendships grow, and, of course, joining in on the dance parties! We wish he could have been there with us, but we felt him there in every smile and laugh.

We love and miss you, Chris. We’ll keep showing up for ourselves, for each other, and for you.

With heavy hearts, we share that our Founder, Chris Kaag, passed away peacefully in his sleep yesterday morning.

Chris founded IM ABLE in 2007 and spent his life helping others overcome their limitations and become the best versions of themselves. He showed all of us what it means to never quit and never give up.

Our deepest condolences go out to Gretchen, Carter, and the entire Kaag family. Thank you to everyone in the community Chris built for the love and support you have shown.

We remember a friend and a leader whose life changed countless others. We are honored to continue the mission Chris dedicated his life to building.

No Excuses. Just Move.

If you have a favorite memory, story, or photo with Chris, we’d love for you to share it in the comments as we remember and honor his life together.

The IM ABLE Games wouldn’t be possible without the people who show up ready to move, challenge themselves, and cheer one another on, our participants!

This year, we were proud to welcome 36 adaptive athletes, including many who put in the work year-round through our IM STRONG, IM FIT, and REDEFINE programs. We were also joined by veteran athletes and participants from our Operation Lead From the Front program, familiar faces who come out to support nearly every event, and members experiencing IM ABLE’s mission for the very first time.

The addition of our 2-Mile Fun Run/Walk/Roll introduced us to so many new faces while creating another way for people of all abilities and experience levels to be part of the day.

Whether you’ve supported IM ABLE for years or just discovered our community at the Games, thank you for showing up and making this event so special. Every one of you helped bring the mission of IM ABLE to life!
