Organiser's Description
This year, were challenging every Kougar to step up, get active, and celebrate
Next year we will be 30 years strong one stride at a time!
In honor of our graduation year, the Step Up for 96 Challenge invites all classmates to walk or run toward a 6K and for those who want a bigger goal, stretch up to 9K!
Whether you start with short walks or are ready to sprint, this is a chance to get moving, stay healthy, and help raise funds for our unforgettable 30th reunion.
WHATS THE 6K/9K RUN-WALK ALL ABOUT?
This isnt a race its a celebration! The goal is to enjoy the journey with classmates, friends, and family. Over the next year, were encouraging everyone to walk, jog, or run at their own pace building up to a 6K or 9K by Reunion Day on June 6, 2026.
To make it even more fun, were exploring the idea of hosting a few group 6K meetups at different locations throughout the year so classmates, friends, and family can join together, stay motivated, and cheer each other on!
Its all about getting active, reconnecting, and promoting a healthier lifestyle as we prepare to celebrate 30 years of Kougar pride.
