Embark on the Rome Conqueror Virtual Challenge, covering a captivating 55 km around the ancient city of Rome. Challenge yourself to keep active during exam prep and assignments, and seize the opportunity to earn a remarkable medal!
But let’s be clear. It’s not a race.
The goal of this challenge is to motivate you to keep active while you’re preparing for your exams, not to run a marathon. How far you can go is completely up to you. Make your goal to get up regularly and walk around your kitchen for 5 minutes or go for a longer walk while you listen to lectures, you decide what goal is sustainable for you and we’ll cheer you on!
Worried about completing the distance in the time?
Don’t be! The challenge has a start date. No end date. If your goal is to add a 20 minute walk to your routine and that’s all you can do during the challenge, that’s great! Walk as far as you can during the challenge and complete the full challenge as you can.
This challenge is designed to help you cope with stress during assessments, not ADD to it.
How does it work?
Use the Conqueror app to seamlessly track your progress on the virtual route through Rome. Every stride stepped or workout logged propels you forward on the interactive map, inching you closer to completing the entire distance.
Unlock local spots of interest as you reach specific milestones, revealing a gallery of images and videos showcasing the streets of Rome, from the medieval Castel Sant’Angelo to the iconic Colosseum. Along the way, you’ll experience the city’s unique blend of ancient history and modern elegance, with stops at landmarks like the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, and Piazza Navona.
I use a wheelchair. Can I still take part?
Absolutely. The challenge includes wheelchair usage as one of the exercise categories.
Do I really get sent a medal for completing the challenge?
Yes. Yes, you do.
