Register a runner in the 2024 challenge 

If your student had an account in 2023, you still need to register them in the 2024 challenge.

We recommend that you encourage secondary students to create their profiles, and primary students have their parents register and sign up their children on our website. This allows a parent or runner to manage their profile and log activities at home. 

If you register a student using your account, the student or parent will not be able to log in and see the details. If they sign up with their own parent or student account, you can still help them manage or log their activities.

To register a student runner: 

1. Sign in to your account. 
2. Select the circle icon with a plus sign next to the '2024 Education Minister’s Challenge'. 
3. Search for the runner and select the row with their name. 
4. Select ‘Register now’ for the new challenge. 
5. Confirm the school and year level. 
6. Select ‘Register’. 

Once you have completed these steps, the student is registered for the 2024 challenge and you can manage their account and log walks or runs. 

To add a new runner: 

1. Sign in to your account. 
2. Select 'Register a runner’. 
3. Search for the runner and select the row with their name. 
4. Enter their details. 
5. Select 'Done'. 

Once you have completed these steps, the student is automatically registered for the 2024 challenge and you can manage their participation and log walks or runs.
