This is an amazing app, and company. The Conqueror keeps me motivated to keep exercising. The medals you receive after each challenge are extremally good quality. The app is easy to use, I do struggle with apps, but I learnt my way around this one fairly quickly. The Facebook page is also a good tool, and well monitored and lots of support from other users.

Invite friends, family, running or walking group to take on race week together. Or face the trail ahead as a solo traveller.
With The Conqueror app, you get the most rewarding experience of all just like with a real-life race: the joy and wonder of watching hundreds of your new workout buddies kick butt and put in the miles with you on every map!

Choose your distance
Decide on your distance before the race starts: 5K, 10K, 21K or 42K. Take it on in one day or split it over the course of the week.
Who thought walking for health reasons would turn into a daily escape into traveling a step at a time around the world? This is a fun, flexible, self-paced program that everyone can enjoy. Now I want to challenge myself to travel to all the places I haven't been to yet and reminisce about the ones I have been to.

All activity counts
Run, walk, hike or cycle your way to the finish line. However you move, it all counts, and takes you further in your race across Middle-earth.
I started out my journey with the conqueror 80lbs heavier than I am today. I can’t say it is all conqueror, but it has definitely been a huge help in keeping me moving and being a better me.
