Hello there, fellow Stridekickers! 👋 Thanks for tuning in for this month’s community update. The holidays are coming up and we have a lot of fun challenges in store for you. We hope you’ll join us for a community challenge or 2 this December. We’ll also be sharing highlights from our November challenges and shouting-out 2 users who have been going the extra mile—literally!—in our recent community challenges.
Here’s a quick rundown of our community challenges starting this December. To join any of the challenges listed below, please create or log into your existing Stridekick account and then follow the steps in this help article.
Individual Goal: Reach 155,000 steps in 31 days
This step challenge features our classic Target goal where each participant will be aiming to reach 155,000 steps by the end of the December. If you enjoyed our latest 🍂 MOVE-vember challenge, be sure to check this challenge out this month. If you’re looking for a fun individual goal to work toward this month, you can’t go wrong with this challenge!
Group Goal: Reach the end of our 100,000 miles world journey together
While you may be staying closer to home for the holidays this year, you can still join us as we virtually “dash” around the world! Over the course of December, we’ll be working towards a cumulative goal of 100,000 miles to make our way around the world. Every walk and run helps us reach our end goal, so let’s get packin’ and steppin’!
Team Goal: Step to bring your favorite reindeer to the top of the leaderboard
Get into the holiday spirit with a fun and light-hearted team step challenge based off of—you guessed it!—Santa’s 9 reindeer! This challenge is perfect for anyone who loves a bit of holiday cheer. Join a team and get to stepping!
Group Goal: Reach 20 million steps together in 4 days
A delicious meal + a long walk with your family = balance! And that’s what we are aiming for in this challenge, so join us if you wish to contribute your steps to our overall goal of 20 million steps over this year’s holiday weekend. Whether it’s running around prepping for dinner or going on a walk afterwards, every step counts!
Individual Goal: Complete a daily exercise prompt
Join us as we challenge you to 12 Days of Fitness! Just like in the song Twelve Days of Christmas, you’ll need to complete a new fitness challenge for each day of the challenge, plus the challenges from all of the previous days. For example, on day 2 of the challenge, we’ll share the following prompt: On the 2nd day of fitness, Stridekick challenged me to 2 minutes of planks and an hour of walking or running. Can you make it to the final day? Join this challenge to find out!
Let’s take a moment to recognize all of our hard work from our November challenges this past month!

Here at Stridekick, we are all about building a community of participants who inspire and encourage others to reach their health goals while having fun. We love to see participants in the community go above and beyond to create this community, and for that reason, we want to highlight 2 inspiring Stridekickers we’ve seen go above and beyond recently.
