Details

How It Works

The Wildman Challenge is a fantastic prep for cyclists, runners and triathletes for their upcoming season. Simply accumulate elevation and / or distance (depending on which of the 6 challenges you choose) between March 1, 2022 and April 30, 2022 as you can. ALL of your running, cycling and swimming activities count regardless of whether you are training or racing in other events during this time period! At the end of your session simply upload your data file (if you have one) or manually update your challenge data. There is a live score board so that you can see who you are competing with at all times.
