South Australia's 2023 Billion Steps Challenge

Every step and minute of activity counts, which is why Wellbeing SA and 10,000 Steps invite you to step up to the fourth annual Billion Steps Challenge this October.

We are challenging you to track your steps with us and find more ways to move more each day to help reach the 1 billion step goal by the end of the month. Can we beat last year's effort and do it in less than 30 days?

Step on your own, together with friends or in a team at work. Walk while you talk, stand while you work and start parking further away. Walking more is good for your mind and body.

How can I track and sync my steps?

Steps can be tracked using any device you have available, whether that be a wrist worn activity tracker, step counting app or pedometer. Steps can be entered manually on either website or mobile app, or a compatible tracker can be connected to sync steps.

If using an activity tracker, we recommend connecting through the 10,000 Steps mobile app through Apple Health or Health Connect (depending on your device) as this provides the most stable connection and accurate transfer of steps.

Please see detailed instructions for:

How can I track other activities?

Every minute of movement counts towards your health (and the Challenge!). Simply enter the amount of time in minutes which you were moving at a moderate and/or vigorous intensity on your Dashboard.

We will calculate an estimated step count based on your time entered and add it to your total for the day.
