Welcome to 2021 Stridekickers! 👋 Thanks for stopping by for this month's community update. Now that it's the new year, we have a lot of challenges that can help you get closer to your goals while having fun! We hope you'll join us for a community challenge or 2 this January. We'll also be sharing highlights from our December challenges and shouting-out 2 users who have been amazing sports in our recent community challenges.
Here's a quick rundown of our community challenges starting this January. 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 Join us for the continuation of our DASH-cember challenge! ❄️Our goal is to step approximately 5,000 steps per day. Each participant will be working toward the target goal of 155,000 steps by the end of the 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: Step to bring your team to the top of the leaderboard
As we step into 2021, don't miss your chance to participate in our open Team Leaderboard! If you don't have a team and want to create one, just join the challenge > select Create a Team > set up a Team Name and Photo. Then, go to Challenge Details to copy the invite link to send to your friends and family along with the name of your team so they can find it to join. For anyone without a team, please join one of our general Stridekick teams. There's no max team size, so invite away!
Team Goal: Step to bring your New Year's resolution/team to the top of the leaderboard
As tempting as it may be to pick 100 New Year's resolutions, studies have shown that sticking to one resolution at a time increases our chances of sticking to it. In this challenge, you can pick from one of 4 resolutions as your team/to focus on for the month, so pick wisely! You can choose from Be More Mindful 🧘, Get Moving 🏃♀️, Sleep More 😴, and Eat Healthier 🍊. Let's see which resolution makes it to the top! 🥊
Group Goal: Reach 15 million steps together in 3 days
National Bubble Bath Day lands on January 8th, and what better way to celebrate than with a challenge focused on self-care! After all, it's important to remember to prioritize self-care, especially as we're entering into the new year and setting goals for what we want to achieve. Our goal is to reach 15 million steps over 3 days. We will also be posting self-care content so try to make time for a small self-care act each day (especially during the weekend)! 💌
Individual Goal: Complete a daily nutrition task
It's 2021 now, and we are starting off with a bang! We all know practicing healthy habits isn't just about moving' and grooving', but it's also about consuming the right food for proper nutrition 🥗💪 In this week-long challenge, we'll keep each other accountable to keep up with healthy eating habits by checking off daily nutrition tasks - let's do it! You're in for a punny treat!
