About Challenges
Challenges give you a fun, goal-driven way to stay active on MissionPeak — set a target, track your progress, and see how you stack up, on your own or with others.
What is a Challenge?
A Challenge is a fitness or activity goal you take on over a set period of time — like a distance, step count, or activity streak. Challenges come in two forms:
- Independent Challenges — personal goals you set and track on your own.
- Community Challenges — hosted under a Community, so members can join, track progress together, and compare results.
Key Features of Challenges
- Independent or Community-hosted
- Start a personal Challenge, or join one hosted by a Community you're part of.
- Goal types
- Track distance, activity count, or streaks, depending on the Challenge.
- Progress can come from activity recorded directly in the app or synced through a connected service. See About Records and About Devices & Services.

- Group participation
- Community Challenges let members see how the group is progressing together.
