The RMC Band is hosting the 2021 Bike+ A-Thon for officer cadets between 19 and 21 March.  Due to the pandemic, our annual Bike-a-Thon could not be done in person, so we decided to adapt the tradition to a virtual format!

N/OCdts will track their cardio activities using a fitness tracking app of their choice and submit proof to the Google Drive folder managed by the band.The top individual athletes and the winning squadron will receive prizes from the Cadet Mess!

The activities that count towards the competition are:

  • Running (1 point per kilometer)
  • Walking  (1 point per 3 kilometers)
  • Cycling   (1 point per 3 kilometers)
  • Skating  (1 point per 1.5 kilometers)
  • Cross-country skiing   (1 point per 1.5 kilometers)
  • Snowshoeing   (1 point per 1.5 kilometers)

These point values are based on the CF Award of Aerobic Excellence: 
The squadron with the most points will receive a customized squadron hat designed by the squadrons themselves.  The individuals with the best overall scores in each event will receive a 2021 Bike+ A-Thon medal as well as some great Paladins gear provided by RMC Athletics.

In addition to helping your squadron, sign up for the CFB Kingston Winter Activity Challenge 2021 to contribute your Bike-a-Thon activity to RMC’s competition with the other CFB Kingston units, for more details refer to the associated link.

Strap on your boots, shoes and skates. May the fittest squadron win!
