Badges

This might have been asked and answered before but does anyone know if there is a "round the world" badge?  I have recently completed the equivalent distance of the circumference of the earth and was surprised that there doesn't seem to be a badge for this? Thanks

Hello @Mazza_Wood and welcome to the Community.  Sorry, but the Pole to Pole badge is the longest lifetime distance badge available.  Users have asked for more badges, especially a circumference badge.  I don't know if there will be more badges.

Congratulations on your achievement.

Thanks @LZeeW - grateful for the reply.  How odd that there isn't a circumference badge - I thought that would have been an obvious thing to do.  Maybe one day?

Thanks again

Very good of you to reply LZeeW and I do not mean this to be directed to you... But why on earth are there not more badges for distance?  I joined in 2014 and am approaching the 2/3 circumference distance (earth's equator circumference is 24,901 miles) and despite my achy joints including an ankle devoid of cartilage throughout that time, I intend to meet that ultimate challenge (or have done everything possible to do so). There have to be a lot of Fitbit users who are using that as the "ultimate" challenge.  How can Fitbit ignore it? It would seem that Fitbit (now Google-owned) would celebrate that because it shows the longevity and dedication (via the app) that Fitbit users have.

Some days things that make no sense do not bother me.  Sorry, but today is not one of them.  Could you please pass this along to the "powers that be?"  Thanks!
