In 2018, 10,000 Steps facilitated an online Health Challenge between Central Queensland Hospital and Health Service and Mackay Hospital and Health Service.
The Health Challenge was conducted to see which Hospital and Health Service could collectively achieve the most weight and waist girth loss over a 16 week period and to encourage healthy lifestyles within the community. The Challenge was run using a Health Challenge feature on the 10,000 Steps website developed especially for publicly viewable, large scale Challenges where participants could opt-in. More than 800 people participated in the Central Queensland Hospital and Health Service vs. Mackay Hospital and Health Service Challenge, collectively losing 396.5kg and 364.2cm and logging more than 254 million steps.
