What is it?
The Conqueror 5K Training Challenge is different from our other challenges in that their is not a total distance to cover over the course of the challenge, instead it is an 8-12 week training plan followed by 2 weeks for you to achieve the goal of a 5K run / jog.
How does it work?
Each week a new Group of participants will start the challenge, you'll automatically go into a private in-app group with these participants. From there you'll receive a training plan designed to take you from being able to walk for 25min to being able to run / jog 5km.
When you sign up you will be able to join the next weeks group (or if you already have friends in the current week you can join that too).
After 9 weeks you'll reach the point where you might be ready to complete your 5k. From then on you'll be able to continue doing training distances or you'll be able to log your Final Run, when you do this, you will unlock the medal for redemption.

FAQs
Can you join the Conqueror 5k with a universal join code?
Yes.
What if I fall behind in the training plan?
You are able to repeat weeks if you have any unexpected interruptions, or you are just needing more time to build your stamina. The plan is for people to complete within 14 weeks, but you can always contact customer support after that for a solution.
Is this a limited availability challenge?
No. We intend to continue offering this challenge on an ongoing basis.
Can I leave the in-app group?
Yes you can, but you won't be able to rejoin a 5k challenge group if you leave. So if you would like to swap to a different weeks group, because you have friends in that group, then you will need to ask customer support to swap you to the other group.
