About this movie

GORUCK's SELECTION is not only one of the toughest endurance events on the planet, it's also an attempt by its creators to bridge the military-civilian divide. Hosted by a group of Special Forces combat veterans, this 48-hour challenge is a condensed interpretation of the US Army's 24-day Assessment and Selection. For the participants, the event is a chance to test their limits while paying tribute to those who serve. For the Cadre, it's an opportunity to honor their community and connect with civilians. Less than 2% of participants finished the first 18 iterations of the event. Will anyone in Class 019 meet "The Standard?

Ratings and reviews

As someone who has done multiple Goruck events, but never Selection, I thought it was a good view into what happens and how the mind works with the body. This made me want to get out to do another event.
