When you run your own virtual step challenge with us you can expect to find native apps for iPhone and Android, a mobile optimised web version, user-support, achievements, internal communications and much more.
We've designed Big Team Challenge's system to be as open to as many users as possible. We have done this by building our system to be available on the web from your computer or tablet, but also via our iPhone and Android apps.
Enabling different leaderboards in your challenge can help engage your participants by creating a more varied and even playing field for those wanting to compete or simply compare their progress in the step challenge.
When you set up your challenge you can choose to enable one leaderboard or all three, it's entirely up to you and what you think works best for your workplace.
Teams: Total Distance
A list of all of your teams as well as their total distances.
Teams: Average Distance
This also displays all of your teams, but this time displays their average total based on the number of people on their team.
So a team of 3 can compete evenly against a team of 10.
Individuals: Total Distance
Instead of displaying all of the teams, this leaderboard shows all of the individual users from every team.
When setting up your custom challenge, you can choose to either run it as a fun and friendly competition, with teams trying to complete the route and beat the others to the finish line, or as a group activity with each team contributing to the total distance.
Teams Vs Teams (most popular)Our most popular mode and the easiest to set up. Teams vs Teams allows your participants to get into smaller teams and compete against each other on a leaderboard. This mode is a fun way to build some friendly competition and inspire daily physical activity.
One Big Challenge
All of your participants still get into small teams, but the totals of all the teams are pooled together to move everyone along the virtual map at the same time. This is a great way of seeing more of the world as you can cover much greater distances together!

Tracking your daily steps to and from the office, around the park, or on your nightly stroll around the neighbourhood is great, but why not travel somewhere a little more exciting while you're at it?
Big Team Challenge has over 300 virtual routes to choose from when building your own challenge, allowing you and your participants to all explore somewhere new, see some beautiful photography and read some interesting facts.
Great Lakes Walk: Explore some of the cities that fringe the Great Lakes of North America, the largest group of freshwater lakes on Earth, taking in one of the world’s most famous waterfalls along the way.
The Bay of Naples and the rugged Amalfi Coast: An area of stunning beauty packed with history and culture along one of Italy’s most beautiful stretches of coastline. A place to enjoy.
If our epic route across the continent of Australia is just too much of a stretch for you then you'll be missing out a real treat. So we thought we'd create this shorter version to let you explore at least part of this great country. Time to go walkabouts?
