Racing to Uganda!

We have been holding an event on campus to have some fun, get in shape, and raise awareness. Starting March 22 and ending April 24. The event, called Racing to Uganda. The distance from Bucknell, in Lewisburg, PA to Uganda is around 7000 miles, and as a group, we hope that in the gym and around campus we can exercise our way to Uganda. Participants will log their trips to the gym, recording the number of miles they run, walk, or swim. The person who logs the the most times and the person that logs the longest distance will win prizes! People pay a five dollar registration fee and they receive a Bicycles Against Poverty wristband. On Saturday April 24, as finale to the Racing to Uganda, we will be holding a BAP Bike-A-Thon where teams of 4 to 5 people will sign up to be the last team standing. The longer they bike, the harder it will be!
