Walk to Mars?

​“Walk to Mars” is an organization-wide fitness challenge for ALL members to participate in enough physical activity so that CAP generates the “equivalent” total distance of 33.9 million statute miles--the average distance from the Earth to the planet Mars. This challenge also promotes the importance of making physical activity a conscious part of one's day.

ANY and ALL physical activity performed by any active CAP member can, and should,be reported. This includes things like:
  • Cadets doing team sports or gym at school, or activities with other organizations, or with their families on personal time.
  • Seniors doing team or personal fitness activities at any time.
  • Any member using a Fitbit, iPhone or other tracker can use all distances/steps that are NOT reported as a separate activity. (Please, no double reporting.)

Please use this handy activity Conversion Chart before uploading on the button below.

There will be a healthy competition between Wings from now until Sept 2020. Opportunities for individual recognition will also be available. See more about the program here: ​“Walk to Mars”
