Winter Warriors Challenge
Winter Warriors Challenge With ASICS Rewards
Description
Log 20 Minutes of Outdoor Activity Every Day in January
The 2026 Winter Warriors Challenge Presented by ASICS and Fleet Feet motivates you to get moving outside in January’s cold weather. Log at least 20 minutes of activity per day in January, and get rewarded with weekly ASICS shoe drawings and lots more. All activities must be on foot, running or walking.
Challenge Details
You must log at least 20 minutes of outdoor activity each day throughout the month of January. These activities must be on foot (i.e. walking or running).
Important Notes:
-
Logging miles is based on honor code. We are not monitoring your activities, and you do not have to upload them online if you do not want to.
-
Additionally, please also note that this is not a challenge against others, but rather against January’s bitter cold! You will not be rewarded for logging extra mileage or completing the most activities.

Strava Group
To track your mileage during the challenge, we recommend using Strava.
We’ve created a Strava group in which you can post your activities to all other participants. In the feed, we encourage you to share your activities, pictures from your runs/walks, and any other pieces of encouragement for your fellow Warriors.

Please note that the Strava group is completely optional, and you do not have to download Strava to participate in the Winter Warriors Challenge.
