Apple has set its next Apple Watch Activity Challenge, inviting users to
"get out and celebrate national parks everywhere" later this month.
Completing the challenge can unlock virtual awards in the Fitness app and
more.
Apple says the National Parks Challenge for Apple Watch users will be held
on August 26 and consist of recording a workout of 20 minutes or more:
"Let's get out and celebrate national parks everywhere. On August 26, earn
this award by recording a workout of 20 minutes or more with any app that
adds workouts to Health".
The challenge is meant to celebrate the National Park Service, which was
created on August 25, 1916, in the United States:
"Come join our birthday celebration on August 25! The National Park Service
was created on August 25, 1916 to "preserve unimpaired the natural and
cultural resources and values of the National Park System for the enjoyment,
education, and inspiration of this and future generations." Over the hundred
plus years, we've grown into more than 400 national parks and many programs
that reach communities around the country-and even the world!"
Apple Watch Activity Challenges are meant to promote using the watch for
fitness and act as a way for Apple to guide users into taking advantage of
the workout tracking features. Completing the challenge with any workout app
that logs data to Apple's Fitness app will unlock the virtual achievement on
the iPhone, Apple Watch, and in Apple's Messages app.
Apple Watch users will be notified about this new Activity Challenge prior
to when it kicks off.
