UPSTREAM

COVID-19 GUIDELINE

Your registration to this event requires you to respect all federal, provincial and municipal COVID-19 restrictions including but not limited to social distancing guidelines and quarantine rules if you are experiencing any symptoms related to COVID-19 and/or have travelled outside of Canada within the 14 day period before your participation in this event.

COMPETITIVE VS NON-COMPETITIVE

This two streams have a slightly different set of challenges (see challenges below). The key difference is competitive challenges will be timed using Strava and synced to leaderboard showing how many times you completed the challenge. Every time you log your time on Strava, you unlock $35 from our sponsors for clean water.

For the non-competitive challenges, posting your time is optional and is based in an honour system. The non-competitive timing is posted using your registration on this platform - we will send you easy step-by-step guide on how to do this! You can also post a photo of you and/or your family completing your challenge; for every #EnvisionUpstream photo you post, our sponsors will donate $35.

NON-COMPETITIVE INDIVIDUAL VS FAMILY

There is no difference in the challenges between these two. The only difference is pricing. If there are 3 or more people in your family, we would like to extend you the option of paying $50 for everyone instead of $35 for each person. This is to encourage as many families as possible to take part and enjoy being active outside while giving back.
