What is a 10,000 Steps Health Challenge?

The Health Challenge is a great strategy to encourage participants to be more active and participate in a fun initiative with colleagues, community members, family and friends.

10,000 Steps members can join a current Health Challenge in their community. Once joined, any steps and health measures logged within the set dates contribute to the overall team totals. 

There is not always a Health Challenge in your area. Health Challenges are special events!

At 10,000 Steps, we can assist workplaces and communities to set up Health Challenges for their community, and these challenges evolve over time. Please Contact Support if you'd like to fund a health challenge for your organisation or area!

What is a 10,000 Steps State Challenge?

10,000 Steps state-wide Challenges organised and promoted in collaboration with our funding partners Health and Wellbeing Queensland, and Wellbeing SA. The Challenge involves setting a goal number of steps and tracking the state's collective steps for a certain timeframe to promote physical activity on a wider scale. When State Challenges are active, 10,000 Steps members steps within the specified timeframe are accumulated and displayed on a graph as well as against the overall Challenge goal.

There are currently no active state or postcode Challenges.

Looking for a Tournament?

A Tournament is an organisational step challenge where workplaces or community groups form internal teams and compete with each other on a private internal leaderboard.

This is different to a Health Challenge, which has a public leaderboard, open registration, and one large team from each organisation, or one team for the whole challenge.

Most often, workplaces will be running a Tournament, not a Health Challenge, and will have their Tournament registration process available through their workplace (not on our website or app). Reach out to your organisation if you have a step challenge upcoming and you're not sure how to join.

Please see 10,000 Steps for Workplaces and Communities for more information.
