Join the Wild Things Move for Mental Health Challenge and be part of the team moving one million minutes to raise money for mental health in New Zealand while winning epic prizes along the way.
We know this is a topic many of us are passionate about, and we want to empower everyone to get involved. This challenge is open to all Wild Things VIP members, so together we can reach our ambitious goal of one million minutes moving! This is due to be one of the biggest challenge prize pools of all time.
Our goal of one million minutes is a combined total for everyone who takes part in the challenge, and you can see the running total underneath the leaderboard. If we get 500 people taking part, then the average each person would need to move is just over five and a half hours per person per month.
Let's band together and make some serious impact.
Here's how it works:
We will be sharing tonnes of epic resources and motivation on movement for Mental Health over the coming 6 months. We are a team, and we are here to support each and every one of you through the good times and the bad.
Where does the money raised go?
It supports the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand to deliver positive outcomes for Mental Health and wellbeing by influencing policy for a better mental health system, distributing nearly one million free mental health resources each year, supporting people in need to navigate the mental health system, and organising nationwide campaigns to improve our own and others mental wellbeing. Epic.
Note: by entering this challenge you give permission for us to hand along your postal address to our prize parters if you win, so they can get these epic prizes sent out to you.
Each month we will be announcing the partners coming onboard to support this challenge with heaps of epic prizes to be won.
Prizes from Salomon, Tailwind, Zeenya and so many more are to be announced.
No worries — you can join a Wild Challenge at any time while it's running.
When you join, we'll automatically award any challenge points you've earned since the challenge started, so you won't miss out just because you joined late.
If you've only just connected Strava or Garmin, we'll sync your last three months of activities too, so eligible activities can still count towards the challenge.
Connect your Strava or Garmin account to Wild Things and we'll automatically sync your activities and add any that qualify to the challenge.
You don't need to add activities manually — just get out there and do your thing! Each challenge has its own criteria for earning points, so check the challenge details above to see what counts.
If you use both Strava and Garmin, you can connect both — we won't create duplicate activities.
Absolutely. You can join as many Wild Challenges as you like, and the same activity can earn points across multiple challenges if it meets the criteria for each one.
We usually draw challenge winners a few days after the challenge finishes. We wait at least 2–3 days to allow any late activities to sync from Strava or Garmin before finalising the results.
If you're a winner, we'll get in touch with you directly.
