Question 8

How do teams work?

Accepted Answer

Teams are a fun way to take part in The Conqueror Virtual Fitness Challenges. **Note that each team member is required to purchase their own entry into the challenge. Each team member will receive their own medal at the end** Basically you share the distance with the other people in your team. Your team will have their very own team icon on the map. Each time a team member posts a distance, your team icon will advance along the map. Your team will also be represented on the leaderboard. You will also be able to see information about your own personal achievements and rankings separate from the team. The distance doesn't have to be divided evenly among team members. You can team up with guru athletes and people just starting out! So hustle up your friends or workmates and join the fun!

Which countries do you accept entries from?

Question 12

Can I extend or shorten the distance for my challenge?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can adjust the distances for MOST* of our virtual challenges using the Conqueror App's Headwind/Tailwind feature. This feature allows you to choose a longer or shorter distance before starting a challenge, without changing the map or its content. Your progress along the route adjusts based on your selection: you can extend the challenge (Headwind) or shorten it (Tailwind). The medal will display the original distance, regardless of whether you use these features. *This feature is not available for our dual-distance challenges.
