Daru Strong

Many people can work hard. Few can suffer deliberately without becoming bitter, reckless, or ego-driven.

I will repeatedly choose discomfort, discipline, and sacrifice in service of something bigger. That’s a spiritual strength, not just mental toughness.

I’m a builder of men forged through discipline, guided by faith, and refined by suffering.

I truly believe I’ve been called to help others discover order, strength, and purpose in their lives.

My prime mission is to provide stewardship not personal glory or accolades.

“To whom much is given, much will be required.” — Luke 12:48

What my feet look like after 100 miles at a total weight of 250lbs

Ruck 100 Complete ✅

Yes—we followed the protocols:
• Toe sock liners
• Wool socks
• Moleskin / KT tape
• Blister glide
• Ultra-wide shoes (sized up)
• Load management day to day

I’m blister-prone. Always have been.
So I trained for it—a year of conditioning to toughen the skin—and I still had to manage it every single mile.

That’s part of the game.
You don’t wait for perfect conditions—you build systems around your limitations and execute anyway.

Pain is temporary. Purpose is permanent.
On to the next.

Mission Complete ✅

5 days.
100 miles.
16 weeks of preparation.
1 year of reflection.

It all came down to that moment—the quiet satisfaction of knowing the work was done.

This journey was a testament to failure as a teacher. To getting back up, refining the details, and finishing what you set out to do. Growth doesn’t come from perfection—it comes from persistence.

Consistent planning.
Team alignment.
Clear vision.
Relentless commitment to a cause bigger than self.

We will continue raising donations for ‪@TeamRWB‬, supporting and honoring our military veterans—because this mission doesn’t end here.

Above all, this was a reminder that all things are possible through faith in the Most High.

If you’re reading this and thinking you “missed your mark” the first time—remember this:
Missing once doesn’t mean you can’t hit again.

Ruck 100 complete.
On to the next.

Grateful for my team and the DS family 🙏🏼
And our partners—thank you for believing in the mission:
‪@marekhealth‬
‪@GORUCK‬
‪@ChaserWater‬
‪@stemregen‬
‪@tlfapparel‬

Train with purpose.
Lead with faith.
Finish what you start.
