Got my June challenge on the 26th, but forgot to post.
Correct. It means I’ve done 2000 5Ks. There’s just no separate award. If you look up 5Ks in the awards section, it shows how many you have and that’s where the screenshot is from.
I'm not sure that mine has been counting since I owned my first watch, since my total right now is 890 and my 10k total is 239. From 2017 through 2019 I averaged a 10k four days a week, and two of the other three I ran at least a 5k.Apple has no award for this running milestone, but I'm rather proud of it, so I just cropped a screenshot to make my own. I would have had this years ago, but my average daily run was 3 miles for years until I found out I needed to run .11 miles further.

Since 2020 I've dealt with injuries that have lowered the totals, but this year I am running 5 days a week and three of the days I run at least 10k, two of the days I run at least 5k.
I'll have to go through my logs to get a total count for each to see where it should be.
As for June's activity challenge, as predicted after a two week vacation this month with no workouts, the walk or run 5.9 miles per day 14 times is now at 13 with one day to go and a ~4.4 mile run scheduled tomorrow. Whether I'll walk around an additional 1.5 miles is possible!
Got my perfect month too, same badge as always so not posting it 
Nah. They all look different 😀Got my perfect month too, same badge as always so not posting it
Here’s mine.
On the very last day… but I made it
And this one too
And I got this one yesterday.
I made it on the last day.
Interesting, to me anyway, that my Cardio Fitness dropped from 53.6 ultimately to 51.2 (yesterday, after a week of workouts after two weeks of no aerobic workouts.) Today it bumped up to 51.7; but I’m interested to see how long it takes to get back to 53.6.

So the monthly challenges are NOT the same for everyone? Well, I just learned something new.
At least you have normal numbers. I'm stuck in the "gutter" and don't know why. I don't even know how to improve my score other than running (maybe?) but I hate running.
yep, I'm at ~ 21 despite indoor cycling for ~ 60 min every day ... but yes, AW/Health only calculates cardio fitness when doing a running workout, might do it with an outdoor walk, can't remember.I don't do run/walk workouts either.
Oh well, I'll survive
I screwed up and let my watch battery die mid-month, *JUST* missing my move goal, and missing my stand goal by 2 hours on the 15th. I didn't notice my watch had died until after midnight, too late to adjust my goals.
You can get estimates from third-party apps and enter those manually.yep, I'm at ~ 21 despite indoor cycling for ~ 60 min every day ... but yes, AW/Health only calculates cardio fitness when doing a running workout, might do it with an outdoor walk, can't remember.I don't do run/walk workouts either.

Well, it's a bit concerning to me that it says "Below Average" when everything else looks ok. I do "Outdoor Walk" pretty much 99% of the time and every morning. I walk for two miles at a pretty decent rate. Then I usually end up with five or six miles on the day. But yea, I'm sure I'll survive as well.yep, I'm at ~ 21 despite indoor cycling for ~ 60 min every day ... but yes, AW/Health only calculates cardio fitness when doing a running workout, might do it with an outdoor walk, can't remember.I don't do run/walk workouts either.

Yea, I feel that for my age group I'm probably above average for fitness level, but, not sure that I really care about thisWell, it's a bit concerning to me that it says "Below Average" when everything else looks ok.

Hey Apple Watch wearers! You all did an amazing job reaching your goals! Now, it’s time to join the July activity challenge thread below 👇
See you there! Cheers 👋🏻 mate!

My actual totals:
10K runs - 376
5K runs - 1140
I guess I was wrong about how often I ran 10ks, but to be fair, there are a lot of 6.0 to 6.15 mile runs in that time period.
Based on my logs and estimations, it looks like they started counting around 4/25/2018 - which is a weird date. Perhaps it was added with a watchOS / iOS update that spring?
As it turns out, the answer is 30 days. 14 days of no workouts, then 30 days of daily aerobic workouts.
I'd read in the past that it takes two days of working out for every day of a workout missed, so I guess that tracks.
