Frequently Asked Questions: Walking Challenges

  • Q: What does 'Turbo Boost My Challenge' mean?
    A:

    Turbo BoostTurbo Boost your challenge

    If you consistently achieve over 15,000 steps a day, you would consider Turbo boosting your challenge.

    The 'Turbo Boosting Multiplier' may be different with each walking challenge. We simply multiply the steps between each waypoint by a given number - for this example we will use  'x2'

    Let's say the distance to the Gold Trophy is 500,000 steps. A member logging 10,000 steps a day would take 50 days (7 weeks) to get to the Gold Trophy. That's a good length of time!

    However, if you were consistently achieving 18,000 steps a day the challenge would only take you 28 days (4 weeks) - thats not much of a challenge at all!

    Now, if you Turbo Boost this challenge - the Steps to the Gold Trophy will be 1,000,000 steps taking the 18,000 a day stepper 55 days (8 weeks) to complete it . Now thats putting 'the challenge' back into a challenge!

    But wait there's more...

    Turbo boosting doesn't affect your walking buddies thay may be achieving 10,000 steps a day. In fact you might be positioned neck and neck as you make your way to each of the challenge waypoints. The only difference the Turbo booster walker has a greater distance between each waypoint.

    How will I know if my walking buddy is Turbo Boosted?

    Their avatar will have flames...jet powered! :)

  • Q: How many walking challenges am I allowed to participate in at any one time?
    A:

    You can enter one walking challenge at a time plus a Team Attitude challenge (when available). How many walking challenges you participate in during your membership is totally up to you!

  • Q: How many weeks (or steps) does a walking challenge last?
    A:

    Our walking challenges are very flexible - this is one the many features that make us unique . Each challenge has different trophy points and you choose what Trophy you wish to reach. You enter your current daily steps and we will let you know how many days and steps it will take for you to finish that challenge at each trophy point based on your current daily steps.

    If you are currently doing more than say 15,000 steps a day you could then select 'Turbo Boost My Challenge' another unique feature you will only find on Walking with Attitude! See Turbo Boost FAQ for more info

  • Q: Is there a limit to the amount of challenges I can participate in during my membership?
    A:

    Absolutely not - no limit - no restrictions at all. 
    Every walking challenge you finish earns you trophies and Milestones medals that go into your Trophy room - the more steps you can log the fuller your trophy room becomes :)

  • Q: Hey! Where do I find my hard earned certificate?
    A:

    Every Trophy has a certificate. It is only available for download when you have reached or passed a trophy point.

    You certificate/s are located in your Challenge History Page via your passport...

    Click on > Passport > Walking History > Challenge History.

    If your trophy reads 100% you will see this coloured icon underneath it Certificatethis is your certificate (PDF) simply click on it to download it.

    If you see a faded icon that looks like this Certificate then your certificate is not ready to be downloaded yet - you still have some steps to do!

What Our Members Say

I've done a few challenges before, and always been amazed at how far/how long/how many steps the people on the top 50 seem to do. I started this challenge last week, and when I checked the standings today, I'm no 19 based on distance, and no 17 based on steps!! Wow, the effort is paying off!
