Apple's next Apple Watch activity challenge is set to take place on June 4 to celebrate Global Running Day. Apple started hosting an activity challenge for running day last year.
To complete the challenge, Apple Watch owners will need to record a running workout of at least five kilometers (aka a 5K run) on June 4.
Let's run this one together. On June 4, record a running workout and go at least 5K (3.1 mi) to earn this special badge. Record it with any app that adds workouts to Health.
Completing the challenge will provide Apple Watch users with a dedicated award in the Fitness app along with animate stickers that can be used in the Messages app.
Last month, Apple provided a limited-edition pin to celebrate Global Close Your Rings day, which Apple introduced to highlight the 10th anniversary of the Apple Watch.

If people only realized that running is one of the worst forms of cardio in terms of the wear and tear on your joints (yes, even on treadmills although that is better than running outdoors). Have fun running now, because you will be hobbling with a cane or walker later, depending on how long you make it. There are far better ways to get your cardio in than running. It's 2025, not 1897.
Yeah, I'm mostly a four to eight miles every other day sort of guy. So long as it isn't raining I'll be doing it.
I've done a few four mile runs as feelers and would love to get up to 10k's. I just need to be very cognizant of pacing. I know it will have to be sooner than later as we are about to get into humid part of the year and that always kills my running.
Maybe a goal for the fall if my knees cooperate. ;)
