Uni students are known to be one of the most broke folks out there. With all the money spent on textbooks and nights out, you’re likely to be living with a tight budget.
If you’re looking to ball a little anytime soon, there’s an upcoming fitness challenge that might just earn you an RM5k cash prize.
The AXN University Challenge is an obstacle course open to all Malaysian university students aged 18 and above. Participating universities are Segi University, Taylor’s University Lakeside Campus, Multimedia University Cyberjaya, Limkokwing University and Asia Pacific University (APU). Registration is also absolutely FREE!
The qualifying challenge consists of 3 categories which are Thrilling, Mystery and Adventurous. The Thrilling part of the challenge includes stacking 10 cans of Mountain Dew from an ice box into the shape of a pyramid. The Mystery round would involve assembling and solving a 12-piece jigsaw puzzle which will reveal one of the 6 components of the final challenge’s obstacle.
Lastly, the Adventurous section will see participants using a mini bicycle (without pedals) to get across an elevated plank, whilst keeping their feet off the ground. Marks will be deducted if the participant falls off, or his/her feet touches the ground while travelling across the obstacle course.
Each participant will be judged on their finishing time and the 20 participants with the fastest time can proceed to the semi-finals challenge at Sunway Pyramid.
The semi-finals challenge consists of a wheelbarrow section which consists of transferring 28 cans of Mountain Dew from the starting point to the finish line.
Ultimately, the individuals with the fastest time will proceed to the final stage which consists of 6 adrenaline-filled courses including Tight Ropes, Rope Up The Up Ramp, Hang Tough, The AXN Axle, Cargo Net and Do The Dew.
Champion walks away with a cash prize of RM5k while the first runner up gets RM3k and the second runner up gets RM1k. All 100 semi-finalists will also receive a pack consisting of a bag, a competition t-shirt and other premiums worth RM150.
If you’re up for the challenge and looking to score yourself some moolah, the AXN University Challenge could be something worth considering. For more information and to register, click here.
