My Story

I’m Liam Archer Thompson, a rucking enthusiast from Boulder, Colorado, with over fifteen years of experience in long-distance rucking and trail navigation. Growing up in a small mountain town, I developed a love for outdoor adventures and endurance sports. My six years in the Army strengthened my passion for rucking, which I now see as the perfect balance of strength, endurance, and mindfulness.I’ve tackled challenges like the Rim-to-Rim hike in the Grand Canyon and the Appalachian Trail Conservancy’s Four State Challenge, experiences that have deepened my connection to the rucking community. When I’m not on the trail, I enjoy coaching and hosting workshops, helping others build mental toughness and master their technique.Outside of rucking, I spend time with my family and my dog, Charlie, and volunteer with a local veteran support group. Whether it’s on the trail or off, I aim to share my passion for the outdoors and connect with others who love adventure.
