SuperDash is your central hub for creating, managing, and running a high-energy challenge from start to finish.
Once your challenge is live, your Challenge Overview page becomes your control center — where you’ll manage participants, teams, updates, and engagement.
This guide walks you through the full lifecycle so you can spend less time setting up and more time getting your group moving.
🧭 Navigate to your challenge
From your SuperDash dashboard:
You’ll see a list of any challenges you’ve created.
Click the challenge name to open the Challenge Overview page.
Here’s where you can review and manage all your details.
Start by clicking Create Challenge from your SuperDash dashboard.
You’ll set up:
Challenge name and description (what participants will see)
Challenge image (required)
Start and end dates (up to 90 days, but we recommend 30 or less)
Challenge mode(s) (how participants earn points)
👉 You can add up to 3 modes in a single challenge
On certain modes, you can also enable personalized goals, letting participants choose a target within a range.
You can also set a daily activity cap, which limits how much activity counts toward scoring (but does not remove actual activity).
Once everything is set, click Create Challenge — you’ll land on your Challenge Overview page, where everything is managed moving forward.
You can make changes to your challenge after it’s been created.
Here’s what you can edit:
Challenge name or description
Prize details
Image
Start and end dates (only before the challenge begins)
Modes, goals, and activity caps
⚠️ Once your challenge starts, start and end dates are locked.
You can still edit other details, but you won’t be able to adjust the timeline.
Need to tweak your challenge goal or cap? You can!
From your challenge’s overview:
Click Edit Challenge. 📝
Update your goal
Save changes — they’ll update immediately for participants and rescore.
💡 For reference, here’s a quick refresher on the different Stridekick Challenge Modes you can choose from:
When your challenge is ready to share, grab your invite link or challenge code.
Copy and paste your unique link into an email, Slack message, or text
Participants can join directly from the Stridekick app by entering the challenge code.
As people join, you’ll see them appear in your participant list in real time.
👥 Pro tip: For bigger groups, share your invite code in your kickoff email or team newsletter to drive quick sign-ups. Here’s a free QR code generator where you can generate a personalized code by pasting your challeng link.
From your Challenge Overview page:
View participants: See everyone who has joined. You can view their name, username, email, device and last time they synced.
Remove participants: Select the user in the table via the checkmark to the left of their name, then click the “Remove” option to take them out of the challenge.
Monitor engagement: Watch your table populate as more people join and start syncing activity.
If your challenge uses Team Leaderboard or Team Virtual Race, you’ll see a Teams section on your Challenge Overview page.
You can:
Create teams yourself (more control)
Let participants create their own (more social)
From the Manage Teams page, admins can always:
Create new teams
Edit team names and images
Delete teams
Remove participants from teams
Move participants between teams
Even if you enabled participant-created teams, admins still have full editing controls
👉 Important: Participants must join the challenge first before you can assign them to a team.
How participants join teams
Participants must join the challenge first in the Stridekick app. Once they join:
They’ll see a one-time prompt to join or create a team:
If you created teams in SuperDash → they’ll choose from your list
If you enabled user-created teams → they can join an existing team or create their own
Participants can revisit the Teams section in the app at any time if they skipped the initial prompt.
👉 Scoring note: Team Leaderboards are ranked by average activity per person, not total activity — this keeps teams of different sizes competitive.
Reports help you track performance and wrap up your challenge.
There are two types of reports:
Challenge Mode Report
Generated per challenge mode
Includes scores, totals, and daily activity
👉 If you ran multiple modes, you’ll run a report for each one.
Participant Report
Includes names, usernames, emails, devices, and sync info
Useful for admin visibility and communication
All reports download as CSV files and can be opened in Excel or Google Sheets.
