Stay active this October with a unique fitness challenge. Run, walk, hike or bike and try to accumulate the most elevation over 31 days.
About this Event

This is a unique challenge designed to keep you motivated, active and connected through October. Track your elevation gain over the month: walking, running, hiking and biking all count towards your goal!

How does it work?

  • Track your elevation in our Strava challenge club and then we will setup a private group slack channel where you can post screenshots of your workouts and cheer on other challenge goers. This is also where we will share resources and details for mini challenges (see below).
  • We will post a weekly hill or stair workout to give you some inspiration plus a few treadmill and stairmaster workouts for days you cannot make it outdoors AND a tool to convert mileage/grade to elevation gain.
  • The most elevation gain at the end of the month wins a prize pack including an Ultimate Direction hydration vest and other fun swag!

Mini challenges!

  • Join "Hell week" from October 20th-26th where we challenge you to run, walk, hike or bike over 1000 feet of elevation each day!
  • Wear a costume on the final day, October 31st and share a screenshot. The person with the most creative costume + impressive method of elevation gain that day wins a special prize!
  • Finish strong on Hill-o-ween! For Colorado participants join a live event on Oct 25th at North table mountain to see how much elevation we can get going up and down the 1/2 mile fire road in a 2 hour grind for our grande finale!
