Gymz Challenges
Climb the World Challenge
For years people have strived to climb higher and faster than others before them. The 8843 metre Mount Everest was first conquered by a British Expedition in 1953. Now we are challenging you to climb the highest Mountains in the world and ultimately to the top of Mount Everest.
The Challenge
STEP the distance using the LIFESTEPPER in five stages. Record your distance at the end of each session and keep a running total.
Remember: You must start at the bottom when you start climbing the next mountain.
Once you have climbed Mount Everest we will award you your GYMZ Challenge T-Shirt and your name will be added to the Roll of Honour.
LifeStride Marathon Challenge
We challenge you to follow in the steps of Pheideppedes and run the Marathon 5 TIMES. After the Spartan army finally drove the Persian army back to sea in 490 B.C Pheideppedes ran the distance of approximately 26 miles from the plains of Marathon to inform the Greeks of the great victory.
The Challenge
Walk or run the Marathons of the World. Start locally with the Sheffield Marathon and finish off with the original Athens Marathon. Record your distance at the end of each session and keep a running total.
Once you have completed all five Marathons we will award you your GYMZ Challenge T-Shirt and your name will be added to the Roll of Honour.
