Mines of Moria Virtual Challenge follows The Fellowship as they brave the Dwarven city, now overrun by Orcs and even darker things. Trying to protect The Fellowship, Gandalf falls to his apparent death, locked in combat with a Balrog demon.
Will you brave the darkness of Mines of Moria for 40mi (64km) and continue the journey towards Mordor?
Each time you complete a distance-based exercise such as running, walking, cycling, swimming, etc., you advance along the map of Middle-earth.
Go solo or create your own fellowship and help each other stay motivated!
Continue your fitness journey with Mines of Moria Virtual Challenge today and earn a stunning medal!
Celebrate your accomplishments with a stunning medal that depicts The Doors of Durin, wrought by both Dwarven and Elven hands and closely guarded by the Watcher in the Water.
The greatest foe you will encounter in this challenge is the fiery Balrog, also featured on the back of this medal — and it gets mailed to you once you have completed the challenge.
You can only arrive at Mount Doom by having the courage to complete each of the five challenges in sequential order. Only those with the determination and bravery to see the journey through to its end will be able to claim the final medal.
Once you complete the previous challenge, you'll be able to start the next one.
As you progress through the challenge, you'll unlock Postcards and Stories when you reach certain milestones.
The Stories are inspired by the narrative of the film trilogy with handpicked images and captions that add rich contextual information.
Each Postcard comes with challenge-specific artwork designs and exciting information highlighting key locations.
To make the story that much more immersive, we designed the Middle-earth map from scratch based on THE LORD OF THE RINGS film trilogy.
Every time you add a workout, you advance on your way to Mordor.
Watching your virtual avatar move from one side of the world to another will make your fitness progress that much more tangible.
You can track all your miles (or kilometers) across Middle-earth directly in our mobile iOS and Android apps.
You can enter an activity into the app manually by entering its distance or by syncing your activities from your favorite fitness tracker or smartwatch.
We will plant a tree or stop 10 plastic bottles from entering the ocean for every 20% of each challenge you complete.
There’s no extra work or cost for you — just make sure you keep exercising!
By the end of each challenge, you will have planted 5 trees or have stopped 50 plastic bottles from entering the ocean. Imagine what we can achieve as a community!
So far, we have planted trees and stopped bottles of ocean plastic.
Want to rack up mileage faster? Now it’s easier than ever through the fellowship feature.
Grab the helm and create a fellowship that will keep you accountable and help you through your Middle-earth journey.
The number of members in a fellowship is unlimited, so gather as many brave heroes as you want.
Fighting Sauron or getting active requires a great deal of motivation and encouragement from others.
Our private Facebook group can offer you exactly that. Every day 140,000 people from all over the world inspire and encourage each other to keep crushing their fitness goals.
The Shire Virtual Challenge is part of our epic THE LORD OF THE RINGS Virtual Challenge Series.

Each of the five Virtual Challenges rewards you with an amazing medal, based on the route traveled by Frodo and Sam.

Any distance-based activity can count toward reaching the finish line. Do cartwheels if that’s your thing.
Take your pick and shine like Mithril with our designs! Wear them on your next THE LORD OF THE RINGS film trilogy marathon or when you go for a run. Shipped to you once you begin your challenge.
