You can log any exercises that track kilometres, through GPS or other fitness tracker.
Looking back, the answer is a resounding yes! This challenge is not about just surpassing your daily routine steps, it’s about surpassing your own limits and achieving personal growth. Everyone takes steps during their day, but this virtual challenge is an opportunity to engage in more intense exercises and reap the health benefits of being more physically active. If you have an injury or benefit from counting steps during the day, use your discretion. Remember, you have the freedom to enjoy this challenge at your own pace, making it a comfortable and controlled experience.
Not yet, but we are aiming to provide this to our participants in the future. You will have access to a HOMESCREEN button to easily enter your kilometres on your Go-Board.
First and foremost, you gain a tremendous sense of accomplishment! Completing this challenge signifies that you’ve made time for yourself and your health. By prioritizing your well-being, you become a better person, experience increased energy, and transform into a healthier version of yourself. You will also receive a personalized finisher’s certificate upon request. You have the option to purchase your well-deserved medal!
We cannot control this issue. If someone cheats, they only deceive themselves. Focus on your goals, and do not let this affect your success this year.
A request form will be available above each Leaderboard.
If you are unable to complete the challenge by December 31st, consider setting a new goal for the following year! Aim to make progress each year until you achieve success!

Our Go-Boards
A Go-Board is a Leaderboard without a ranking system. A leaderboard without a strict ranking system can enhance motivation and enjoyment, making it easier to achieve your goals while fostering a supportive community.
The Go-Board is an optional tracking method; not all participants want to use it to track their kilometres. If you are interested in adding your name to the Go-Board, follow these steps
- login
- ADD KM
YOUR NAME WILL APPEAR AFTER YOU ENTER 0.
Yes! If you have a goal to walk 500 km and run 1000 km in one year, add your name to both Go-Boards and track your mileage for both goals!
If you entered data on your Go-Board, it will be on the selected Go-Board. Most participants who can’t see their entries find they entered data on the incorrect Go-Board.
PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOU ARE ENTERING YOUR KILOMETRES ON THE CORRECT GO-BOARD!
Once you reach your goal, you can change Go-Boards to continue tracking your kilometres for the year.
Click on the following division or leaderboard of choice, add your kilometres in one lump sum, and then continue adding your kilometres from there!
Unfortunately, no. We hope to have this set up in the future, but it is very expensive to hire someone for a project like this. We do not have sponsors or grants at this time, but we hope to add this function in the future.
Click the “update details” button above the leaderboard to have your name appear as a nickname or anonymously.
DELETE ALL ENTRIES. YOUR NAME WILL BE REMOVED WHEN THERE ARE NO ENTRIES LEFT.
