Virtual Challenge Events

Building team cohesion & improving health & wellbeing
Virtual Challenges

Climb a mountain — from anywhere.

Turn your team’s everyday steps, runs and rides into a shared adventure. Ricky’s virtual challenges have your people cover the distance of a famous mountain or route at their own pace, tracked on a live map — building activity, wellbeing and team spirit, wherever everyone is.

What is a virtual challenge?

One route. Your whole team. Any activity.

Pick a legendary route — Everest Base Camp, Kilimanjaro, the length of the Munros — and your team takes on its distance over a set window. Every walk, run, cycle, swim or gym session gets logged and moves them along a live route map, with a leaderboard to keep it fun and a finisher’s certificate at the end. Run it for individuals — everyone completes the full distance themselves — or as teams that pool their miles and compete against each other. It all runs on our digital event platform, so there’s nothing for you to build and nothing to install.

Why teams love them

More than a step count.

Wellbeing, built in

Gets people moving toward a shared goal — motivating, not another nagging step target.

Team spirit, remotely

A common mission that connects office, hybrid and home-based staff across sites and time zones.

Inclusive by design

Any activity counts, at any level — walk, run, cycle, swim or wheel — so everyone can take part.

A cause to rally around

Run it for charity and turn every mile into fundraising and a story worth sharing.

How it works

Live in four steps.

1

Choose route & dates

Pick the mountain and the challenge window — a week, a month, whatever suits.

2

Your team joins free

One link and code. They log activity from any app or by hand — no new kit needed.

3

Watch the map fill

A live route map, leaderboard and milestones keep the momentum and the banter going.

4

Finish & celebrate

Everyone who completes the distance earns a digital finisher’s certificate.

Bring it to your team

A private challenge, built around your organisation.

Want your own branded challenge — your route, your dates, your logo and your cause? Ricky sets it up end to end and runs it for you; your people take part free of charge. It’s a proven way to get a workforce moving together: Zendesk’s EMEA sales team saw 182 of 300 — 61% — take part, and a 60-strong accountancy firm had its people out on the trail.

What’s included

Branded event setup

Your challenge built end to end, with an interactive live route map.

Your route, your rules

Choose the mountain or route, the dates, the distance and which activities count.

Website widget & support

An embeddable widget for your intranet, plus technology setup and troubleshooting throughout.

Digital finisher badges

A finisher’s badge for everyone who completes the distance — and it’s ready for charity fundraising.

Most teams launch a challenge alongside an inspirational talk — Ricky’s “Follow Your Dreams” webinar fires up sign-ups and sets the tone. Book the two as a package, or the challenge on its own. See the talks →

Private challenges are priced per event — from £950 for up to 250 people, then £3 per extra participant. Your people take part free of charge, and prices exclude VAT. Tell Ricky your team size (and whether you’d like a talk alongside it) and he’ll confirm your quote.
