  • When will challenge winners be announced?

    Final results will be announced 24 hours after the challenge is over to allow each time zone to complete their sessions.

  • Can I complete sessions from previous or future days?

    No, sessions must be completed on their assigned days to count towards the challenge.

  • How will I be notified if I win?

    You will be notified via the email address used for your Wellness Coach account.

  • How are winners decided?

    24 hours after the close of the challenge, a leaderboard section on the Wellness Coach app will show winners listed by ranking.

    Ranking of how to win is based on total minutes of classes taken and at the time they were taken. For example, user Alex totals 115 minutes of the challenge at the end and Alex took the last class at 5PM, and user John total 115 minutes of the challenge but took the last class at 9AM, even though Alex has the same minutes, because John finished earlier in the day, John will rank higher

    All time zones will be local to the user and challenge results will be adjusted accordingly. That means a user in Australia does not have a time advantage over someone in the USA.
