Mild Things Urban Challenge

About the Challenge:

One for the mild things!

Petrol is up and time is down. Can’t get to the hills? Go local!

• Earn 1 point for every walk or run you complete on an urban or urban fringe Wild Things trail.
  
  
• Bonus points: Earn 10 extra points for every new urban or urban/fringe trail that you submit to the Trail Directory and run during the challenge period, once we’ve published it*.
  
  As always, every new trail published also earns you the usual $10 Wild Things shop credit.

What’s an urban/urban fringe trail?

There are four Wild Things run settings: urban, urban fringe, front country and back country.

Urban is any mostly offroad path or trail that’s in town.

Urban fringe is within spitting distance of town.

You’ll find the run setting on the trail page under ‘Type of Run’. You can search the directory for urban/urban fringe runs using the search filters.

No urban/urban fringe trails in your area? Want heaps of bonus points?

Submit one! We’ve been told that the directory could do with more “easy” trails on the doorstep. This is your chance to add some. (And get 10 bonus points. And get $10 shop credit.)

Submit a Trail

* Bonus points are awarded once your trail is approved (this may take a little time). Some submissions may not be accepted — especially if similar routes already exist.

You must run your submitted trail during the challenge period. Include your Strava or Garmin activity link when submitting (look for the Your Strava or Garmin Activity Link field) so we can award points once approved.

Challenge Prizes:

This one’s purely for the glory of the leaderboard.

It’s good to be mild!
