How do Gold Getters, Silver Stars and Bronze Bounders categories work?

May 25, 2026

When you sign up for the challenge in these three categories, you are committing to cover a certain number of kms during the challenge;

For the Bronze Bounders category you commit to running or walking 40km

For the Silver Stars category you commit to running or walking 130km, and

For the Gold Getters category you commit to running or walking 200km.

If you don’t reach your distance, then you don’t receive the medallion.

If the team completes the Challenge before a participant reaches their distance, the participant can keep running up until the finish of the Challenge at midnight 17th September.

If the team fails to reach the distance of 1300km in 19 days but the individual achieves their target of 130/200km then the individual is still awarded their medallion (Bronze Bounders receive a digital certificate).

Participants within a team can be any mix of Merry Movers, Bronze Bounders, Silver Stars and Gold Getters entries.

All your data must be uploaded to your Race Roster account prior to midnight on 19th September. (which is two days after the event finishes)

Providing there a still places available, you can change your entry prior to midnight 29th August.
Login to your account in Race Roster and go to the event home page and click the transfer button.

Medallions are typically posted out to you within 3 weeks of completing the Challenge.
