What is a virtual challenge or virtual race?
How do I submit my miles to get my medal?
A virtual challenge or virtual race is an event that happens whenever you want it to, wherever you decide to have it.
With a marathon type-race, for example- you'd register for the event that takes place on a certain day, at a certain time, at a set location. There are normally hundreds, if not thousands of people present all at the same place.
Often times, those that participate are athletes that have been training for the event for some time.
Because a virtual challenge isn't in any one particular place or time, there is no requirement to be any type of an athlete, and you don't need to be in any one particular place at any specific time.
This allows people from all walks of life, and all fitness levels to participate- AND their only competition is that which they set for themselves. This also allows races to be longer- sometimes hundreds of miles- or even thousands of miles- and can be broken up into tiny pieces of activity over months and months if need be.
Some people might run ten miles a day toward a goal. Others might walk a few blocks toward the same goal- there is no one to judge the effort or capabilities of each participant. You are only accountable to yourself.
Keep track of your miles (or the conversion of your chosen activity to miles) and when you've reached your challenge goal- send a screenshot or a photo of your tracker to us- and we will promptly engrave and ship out your medal and certificate!
Yes, you get a medal and a certificate for simply completing the challenge! You earned it! Way to go!
How do I keep track of my miles, and how do I convert other exercises to miles?
We have compiled a few tools to help you on your challenge journey.
1. Use a tracking app on your phone
2. Use a pedometer or a smart watch
3. Jot down activities on paper (we provide you a handy log sheet that might help)
4. We're in the process of developing the functionality to track your activity right into your Champion Challenge account. This takes time and resources, but we will update this process along the way!
5. We have created an activity converter to trade your activities for miles toward your goal. HERE
We also have an activity tracking sheet you can print out to help keep track of your activity HERE
