More about Monthly Challenges.
See below for information on Monthly Challenges for individual members and organisations.

Monthly Challenges for Members
Monthly Challenges are free to join any time of the month.
Monthly Challenges offer four virtual journeys to choose from each month (7,000 steps/day, 10,0000 steps/day, 13,000 steps/day, 16,000 steps/day). Members compete as individuals, with no Teams or Team Captains.
Monthly Challenges support tracker syncing options and direct entry for step tracking, including an option to log activity minutes. Start and end dates align with the first and last day of the month.
Participants can opt-in to a members-only Leaderboard that ranks participants in their chosen journey option. Rankings are determined by total steps and the speed of completion, while our prize draw is randomly chosen from all Australian participants who complete 100% of their journey (T&Cs apply).

Monthly Challenges for Organisations
All 10,000 Steps members can join our Monthly Challenges.
Monthly Challenges are pre-set and organised by 10,000 Steps each month, ideally suited for individuals, friends, or colleagues.
Monthly Challenges coincide with the dates of Group Challenges, and can be promoted on their own, or alongside Group Challenges, Tournaments, or Health Challenges as an additional or ongoing participation option. For example, for the same month as a Group Challenge, or at the end of a Tournament.
Coordinators can only see members if they also participate in the same Monthly Challenge journey option. Monthly Challenge Leaderboards include all 10,000 Steps members who choose the same journey option, and include a random chance prize for Australian members who complete their journey option.
