For Walk Across Canada 2025, each cohort will travel 1000 km in a race toward McMaster University. You can contribute to your cohort\u2019s travel distance by walking, running, biking, or swimming and logging those kilometres in an MS Form daily, starting on April 1st and ending April 7th. There will be 5 checkpoints per cohort, including your starting location, where you will learn about interesting sustainability, biology, or agriculture-related facts from Canadian locations. We will be posting daily leaderboard updates on the @iscisynthesis Instagram stories and here on the website. This is also where you can find an updated map of each cohort\u2019s distance along their paths. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year, we will be running events for Walk Across Canada where you can gain bonus kilometres, so stay tuned for details and make sure to attend! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Follow along each day of the conference as we update each cohort\u2019s path towards Mac and highlight key checkpoints along the way, each with a unique story demonstrating how our country is cultivating new knowledge, as per this year\u2019s theme! This week, whenever you complete an activity, which can be walking, running, biking or swimming, be sure to complete the MS Form to contribute towards your cohort\u2019s success. The top cohort will be recognized at closing ceremonies, and top performing individuals overall, and by type of activity, will receive prizes. We will also be giving out a prize for the best photo of an activity, so make sure to snap and submit those photos. We are looking forward to the journey and hope to see everyone being active and evolving for Walk Across Canada. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
