The Conquer 2023 Virtual Challenge is the perfect challenge to set you off on the right foot and help you finish the year with a bang.
Here's how it works:
You challenge yourself by setting a distance goal for 2023 – that you have to complete by 31 December 2023.
To finish it you can walk, run, cycle, swim, row or do any other distance-based exercise.
And once you've completed the challenge, you'll be the proud owner of an awesome finisher's medal!
Conquer 2023 Yearly Challenge is truly special because the medal was designed by one of our community members.
Celebrate your achievement with a stunning, limited edition Conquer 2023 finisher's medal.
It will be mailed to you once you complete the challenge and is guaranteed to stand out in your medal collection!
Make 2023 your best year yet! This medal will be a reminder that you’ve reached your goal despite everything that was going on.
*Please note that the Conquer 2023 medals will not be shipped immediately after completing the challenge. Due to production and shipping timelines, medals will be shipped later this year.
Conquer 2023 is different from our regular virtual challenges – you get to set your own distance goal that you want to complete before 31 December.
Just set your goal as the number of miles (or km) you want to achieve in 2023.
You can track all your miles (or kilometres) directly into our mobile iOS and Android apps.
You can enter an activity into the app either by manually entering its distance or by syncing your activities from your favorite fitness tracker or smartwatch.
We will plant a real tree or stop 10 bottles from entering the ocean for each month you add any workout activity to your Conquer 2023 Challenge — that means you can plant up to 12 trees or stop 120 bottles of ocean plastic. There’s no extra work or cost for you — just make sure you keep exercising!
So far, we have planted 8,704,745 trees and stopped 23,307,600 bottles of ocean plastic.
Each participant gets access to our private Facebook group. Words cannot describe how awesome our community is — seriously they can't.
People from all over the world will encourage you, share their stories, wins and losses with you, and make you feel part of our tribe. Once you've signed up we will send you an invitation link.
Log and see your progress on our iPhone and Android mobile app.
You can join the challenge anytime during the year. Distances can be backdated until that point.
You choose your own distance goal for the whole year. You have until December 31 to hit your goal.
Any distance-based activity can count toward reaching the finish line. Do cartwheels if that's your thing.

You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers - let’s do this!
How do I enter a distance towards the challenge?
You can log distances using two methods:
1) Manually - Either on the web or via our iPhone and Android apps. Select your exercise type, add a distance and boom, you’re done. You can add a screenshot of your tracker if you wish but it is not required.
2) Automatically – Via the range of apps and devices that we connect with. Currently, we support: Apple Watch, Apple Health, Garmin, Fitbit, Adidas Running, Strava, Map My Run, Map My Ride, Map My Walk, Runkeeper.
What’s stopping someone from cheating?
We do have a number of ways that we can detect cheaters, however we do realise that no matter what we do or how we structure it, people are always going to be able to cheat if that’s what they want to do. E.g. Put their Fitbit on their dog!
There are no prizes for first place.
If someone wants to cheat then they are only really cheating themselves and wasting their money.
How long does it takes to complete the full distance?
The amount of time it will take you or your team to complete this journey depends on your fitness level, exercise type and team size.
You can set your own time-frame goal from 1 week to 18 months to complete each challenge. This goal can be easily changed at any time if you want to extend or shorten it.
When can I register for the challenge?
You can start this fitness challenge any time and from any location around the world. Registrations are open now so feel free to sign up and make a start.
We’ve made it as flexible as possible so you can backdate your start date to whatever date you want as long as it’s after the date we launched the challenge.
Can I enter multiple challenges at once?
Yes - You can enter as many challenges as you like and post your distances to each of the challenges.
You can either post all your distances to all of your challenges or you can decide what types of distances go to which challenges. e.g. you might want to send your walking distances to one challenge and your cycling or swimming distances to another challenge. It's completetely up to you.
What types of exercise count?
You can log most types of distance based exercise such as running, walking, cycling, swimming, rowing etc. For other non distance based exercise such as yoga or cross fit, we have a handy conversion chart that converts time doing these activities into distance equivalents that you can use..
Can I log multiple exercise types?
Yes - You can log any distance based exercise that you do. The common ones that we have icons for are:
Running (indoor and outdoor)
Cycling (indoor and outdoor)
Rowing
Walking
Skiing

All others can be logged in the “other” category.
You can also convert other exercises, such as sports that you play or going to the gym etc into distances. We can provide information on some ways to do this.
How long does the challenge go for?
You get to choose the time-frame in which you will complete your Challenge, from 1 week to 18 months. This goal can be easily changed at any time if you want to extend or shorten it.
You can change this goal as many times as you like during the event.
How do teams work?
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?
We warmly welcome entries from all over the world and we offer global shipping on medals and apparel. On average we have people from over 80 countries from around the world enter our challenges each month! Join our global community of virtual fitness enthusiasts!
