Choose your own adventure (Ride or Run)!

Register

Register and commit to running or riding a set distance of your choice. Join us on June 21, 2025 to complete your km's with other riders/runners. If you're not able to be come to our in-person event, that's ok! You can still participate. Track your Km's between June 6-21, 2025. Don't forget to send us photos and short video's of your ride/run to rfar@sabc.ca. You can also post them on our Facebook page and tag us on Instagram. We would love to create a highlight video of our event.

Let your friends and family know that you have committed, and ask them to support you with a financial donation.  Lets see how many kids we can sponsor to come to camp this year!

There are no restrictions on how you complete your Kilometers (by road or mountain bike, tandem, virtual, ebike, trail-a-bike, trail running, treadmill, etc.).

Fundraising

  • Everyone that registers will get a fundraising package with templates and tips to help raise money.
  • We are encouraging a new fundraising challenge this year to each of our riders/runners at different ages:
    • Age 12 & under: $200
    • Age 13-17: $400
    • Age 18+: $600
  • The Corporate Partnership page has great advertising options you can offer to companies for corporate sponsorships. This information will also be sent to you in the fundraising package.

Social Aspect

NEW THIS YEAR: We are planning an in-person event. Everyone that registers for RFAR 2025 should mark June 21, 2025 on their calendars. We will be meeting in Lethbridge to ride or run together and will end the day off with a BBQ celebration.

We are also continuing our "host a ride/run" option. We love our R²FAR community and would like to see everyone meet up and complete their km's with friends new and old. This does not need to be a big organized gathering, we are just encouraging you to post the when/where of your ride/run to the calendar on our website and invite others to join you on that day. The R²FAR committee would love to provide you with a few drinks & snacks to enjoy with your group as well. Please email abbey@sabc.ca if you're interested in more information or to have your ride/run date added to our calendar!

We are all in this together! We invite everyone that is doing the ride/run to post photos and videos on social media and use the hashtag #rfarsabc. Throughout the week, we will share these posts. Please also email them to us at rfar@sabc.ca so we can create a highlight video of our event.

We encourage you to share the news about R²FAR yourself as well. Below, are two photos you can use to share about R²FAR.

TRACKING your km

Here are some ideas to help you keep track of your KM's.
Use apps you're comfortable with (Apple fitness, Strava, Fitbit, Underamor, etc) to track your daily KM accumulated. Make sure to post to our social media each day so we can cheer you on!
If interested in trying Strava, here is a quick how to below:
  • Log into Strava.
  • Click on My Routes under the Dashboard tab on the top right.
  • Click Create new route.
  • If the autoroute function is causing you grief you can turn on manual mode on the top panel.
  • An elevation map can be brought up on the bottom right of the screen.
  • To Save your route click the leave icon on the top right.
