Thank you for visiting the fundraising page for the

XO 6000 Mile Challenge

--------------------

Our Challenge 

The Executive Officer (XO) of 600SQN has challenged the whole SQN to cover the same distance travelled by 600SQN during WW2 (01/09/1939 to 08/05/1945*) as the SQN was posted around the UK and Europe. Using Wikipedia and Tjpeiffer (an 'As the Crow Flies' distance calculator) a total distance of 4975 miles has been calculated (excluding detachments). As we are 600SQN we have decided to increse this distance to 6000 miles.

600SQN personnel are to achieve this distance by either, 

• walking
• marching 
• running
• treadmill
• cross trainer
• cross country skiing
• cycling
• rowing
• sailing
• obstacle course
• parachuting - (10,000 feet = 1.89 miles)
• RAFFT - (level 10 = 1.88km)
• or in a motorised vehicle in a sporting event.

6000 Mile Challenge participants are requested to post their activity miles (or km) on this fundraising page along with a donation for Macmillan Cancer Support.

A Message from the XO

It is my hope that this 6000 Mile Challenge will not only contribute to the strong fitness culture on 600SQN but also raise money for our chosen cancer charity Macmillan Cancer Support.

Your activity and donation will of course assist us to reach and hopefully exceed our 6000 mile objective before the final day of the challenge, Sunday 20 March 2016.
