September 2022 Activity Challenge

Finally got my challenge for September... and it's not possible to complete... I have to close all three rings 31 times... but there are only 30 days in September, and since you can only close a ring once per day, well, I am not getting this one done ...
You should contact Apple. This is crazy Bug.
My month goal is doable, absolutely the best I could dream to heal and improve my knee. In the past I could do it in a week :/ where 8km/day is probably my daily limit even in fivefingers.
Approx 4.5km walk / day

I'm hoping that it sorts itself out as the month progresses... but yeah, seems like basic Math 101...Well that seems to be unfair does it
Sorry to see you got that.
Received my notification late this morning. My September challenge is to burn atleast 10,800 kilo-calories for the month.
I got the same 31 day September challenge. In fact, for last month, I had to complete my rings for only 30 days! Not sure who is steering the ship.
Are kilocalories similar to calories, i.e. my move goal is 600 calories / day? Just curious.
Sorry for the possibly naive “American“ question.
On topic, my Sept challenge is 918 calories for 14 days this month. 50/50 chance I can do it… ok 70/30… I think I can!

Easy one. I’ll get this done in no time.
Exactly the same thing in common parlance for exercise and nutrition, no conversions needed.
Outside of exercise and nutrition, a kilocalorie (aka large Calorie) is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1kg of water by 1°C. This large Calorie is what's always used for exercise & nutrition.
A calorie (aka small calorie) is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1g of water by 1°C.
Some people like to use kJ to express energy consumed/burned, which does require some conversion...
Thanks! I thought so, but good to read confirmation. Funny to have “learned” that at least once before some time ago, but then to forget. So I’m guessing folks who get kcal monthly challenges don’t live in the USA because we’re virtually the only country to not know the metric system…Exactly the same thing in common parlance for exercise and nutrition, no conversions needed.

Good luck to everyone with this month’s challenges!
Since walking/running is not part of my exercise routine, I will just see where I’m at at the end of the month
Not sure I will finish it. After all these years, I’m still puzzled no one at Apple looked into that algorithm.
I miiiight get this one. Normally this would be doable for me, but I have a lingering soreness in my left heel which is shortening my running.
Both Achilles started acting up over the past couple days. If stretching & raises don't help I may have to reduce milage. This month's 251 miles for the challenge might be out of reach. 🙁
So looks like now i might not get my September Challenge done as unfortunately ive had a relapse with my ongoing pain issues that i suffer for many year.
Past few days i havnt been able to move or walk at all....so i dont see how im going to complete mine now

Here’s mine.
Though disclaimer - my Apple Watch seems to be way more sensitive and clocking more movement / exercise minutes this month, to the point where I seem to be routinely doubling or tripling my daily activity goals. I have done a reset of my watch, but the sensitivity is still there, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Edit - just hit the goal, so I thought, why not update the post.
