Share Challenge
3rd April 2022 to 3rd May 2022
Flash Challenge
Number of runs
Teaming up with Ledlenser, we want to help you stay out there as the nights get darker and longer, so this challenge is all about running during the dark hours!
You can run anywhere; it doesn't have to be on a trail from our directory, but it does have to be dark!
A key rule to making this challenge a little different...
A few other rules:
The sunset and sunrise times are determined based on the exact starting point of your activity, as reported by https://sunrise-sunset.org/.
The leaderboard is based on the number of runs you can complete between 3rd April and 3rd May, during the dark hours.
We have a huge prize pool worth $800 from Ledlenser, and will be making six people winners!
The prizes are from a whole new range of running headlamps, which are yet to be launched!
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.
