In the marathon of 2323, on the [[planet]] [[Danula II]], Jean-Luc Picard became the first freshman cadet to win the marathon. (TNG: "The Best of Both Worlds, Part II")
==History==


==Background==
A certificate created for the Picard family album in Star Trek Generations, which was not seen on screen, stated that Picard won the forty first academy marathon in April of 2323. It also states that the distance of this marathon was forty kilometers, although the accepted distance since 1921 has been 42.195 kilometers.


It is possible that the reason why Picard's academy picture in Star Trek Nemesis depicted him with a shaved head is because he shaved his head for this marathon.  
The Bluebird class was designed for Starfleet to fulfil the need for confidential material and communiqués that could not be transmitted by subspace communication to be carried securely and safely. Up to this point ships like the modified Defiant Pathfinder had been used to fore fill this vital courier role. The Bluebird class was a cheaper and reliable option to bolster the small number to Defiant Pathfinders.  


In the alternate reality, Pavel Chekov won the Academy marathon some time before his mission on the USS Enterprise in 2258, and was the youngest cadet to do so at the time. This calls into question the status of the marathon in the future, whether the event is first held earlier than in the prime reality, or is not held on a strictly annual basis.  
The Bluebird class took technology and designs that had been incorporated into small ships like the Defiant, Nova and Sabre Classes. The Bluebird class four nacelles design means that it has the ability to cover a distance of 50.5 light years within six days which is the equivalent to Warp 9.982. This distance is achieved by alternating or (Bouncing) the twin matter-antimatter reaction cores and nacelle pairs. This has lead to the phrase of “ Core Bouncing”.

The Bluebird class dose not have a large cargo capacity as compared to other courier. Due to this it was fitted with two sets of twin isolinear processing cores which gave the Bluebird class a capacity of 500 megaquads. This meant that the Bluebird class carries confidential data rather then materials.
As well as the computer cores the Bluebird class carries the most up to date sensor package and weapons. This is due to the highly confidential information that the    class was out fitted with weapons and armour more suited for larger ships.

History[edit]

The Bluebird class was designed for Starfleet to fulfil the need for confidential material and communiqués that could not be transmitted by subspace communication to be carried securely and safely. Up to this point ships like the modified Defiant Pathfinder had been used to fore fill this vital courier role. The Bluebird class was a cheaper and reliable option to bolster the small number to Defiant Pathfinders.

The Bluebird class took technology and designs that had been incorporated into small ships like the Defiant, Nova and Sabre Classes. The Bluebird class four nacelles design means that it has the ability to cover a distance of 50.5 light years within six days which is the equivalent to Warp 9.982. This distance is achieved by alternating or (Bouncing) the twin matter-antimatter reaction cores and nacelle pairs. This has lead to the phrase of “ Core Bouncing”.

The Bluebird class dose not have a large cargo capacity as compared to other courier. Due to this it was fitted with two sets of twin isolinear processing cores which gave the Bluebird class a capacity of 500 megaquads. This meant that the Bluebird class carries confidential data rather then materials. As well as the computer cores the Bluebird class carries the most up to date sensor package and weapons. This is due to the highly confidential information that the class was out fitted with weapons and armour more suited for larger ships. They also have a squad of marines on board whose purpose is to keep the ship and its contents secure.
