Question 1

Is this a step challenge?

Accepted Answer

No. GoJoe is an activity-based app involving planned or set activities (walks, runs, cycles or swims) which are measured in kilometres. It is not about steps. This is intentional to encourage movement in the form of an actual walk or run (for example) rather than tracking routine steps. The benefits of a planned activity include helping to clear the mind rather than focussing on tracking boring steps from the sofa to the fridge!

Question 2

What will happen during the challenge?

Accepted Answer

People enter the Killa Games on GoJoe either as a team (of three people) or on their own (and be assigned to a team). From 1 May 2022, people log as many kms to the GoJoe app (run, walk, cycle or swim) as they can, on their own. You earn points for the kms you do, which count for your team and accrue lives (max 3). After one week, things start getting interesting.  High performing teams are able to nominate other teams to lose lives.  Be careful, though - if you do nominate someone, they will have beef with you.  So choose carefully.

Question 3

How does the scoring and 'lives' work?

Accepted Answer

This challenge is a 'most points' challenge - the kms you do generate points which count for the team.    To level the playing field, the activities are weighted so that you earn points as follows: Walks: 1km (0.62 miles) = 1 point; Runs: 1km (0.62 miles) = 1 point; Cycles: 3km (1.86 miles) = 1 point; Swims: 250m (0.15 miles) = 1 point.   Details on how to accrue 'lives' - and on how to nominate/ eliminate other teams - will be revealed in the coming weeks.

Question 4

Can I join on my own or do I have to have a team?

Accepted Answer

You can either join on your own or enter as a team of three.   If you join on your own, we'll do some match making and randomly assign you to a team. Details of the team you've been allocated to, and how to join your allocated team, will be emailed out to you before the challenge begins.   Alternatively, if you buy a team, you'll immediately be able to create your team on the app and your team-mates can be added or can join using a code.

Question 5

How do I log activities?

Accepted Answer

You can log kms by either: (1) syncing a wearable (Garmin, Fitbit or Apple Watch) to the GoJoe app; (2) use GoJoe's in-app GPS tracker; or (3) manually adding the activities to the challenge (but beware we have ways and means of identifying cheaters!).

Question 6

What do I get for my money?

Accepted Answer

Loads. Bragging rights. Fitness motivation. A chance to receive a GoJoe NFT. Access to certain cool GoJoe rewards (like discounts off Nike and GoPro) for one year. The 2-week virtual challenge. Added to team/challenge chat group in the GoJoe app. Challenge email updates. Blisters.

Question 7

What's an NFT and will I get one?

Accepted Answer

Everyone who enters this challenge will receive a Killa NFT.  The first 100 to enter will receive a limited edition, rare shiny NFT.   Back up a sec...what is an NFT? NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) are "one-of-a-kind" assets in the digital world that can be bought and sold like any other piece of property. They’re pretty cool because - with the advent of the blockchain (on which they are based) - it’s now the first time that individuals can prove ownership of a digital asset (i.e. like a piece of art).

Question 8

What if I have another question or need help?

Accepted Answer

You can email help@gojoe.com or use the live chat on our website or in-app.
