Nationwide Challenges for Specific Days

I would like to suggest that Fitbit offer challenges that can track the opted-in Fitbit community on specialized days.  For example, Global Running Day is on June 6, and it would be so cool to see how many people commit to being active by logging at least 1 mile or hitting their step goal for the day.  Even better would be to keep a running (pun intended) tally of how many miles are logged that day by FitBit users who accept the challenge.  This could also be extended to days like Boston Marathon Day, NYC Marathon Day or other days devoted to physical activity and healthy living.  Right now, challenges only accept 10 people, which can't drive a nationwide movement.

I think that would be a fun challenge. I just wish Fitbit would get on it with creating new challenges period.

My suggestion is to add something to the challenges and adventures page on the fitbit app. This "something" would be a challenge between all fitbit users. It could be a weekly thing or monthly. User would accept the challenge and see at the end of the time period where they stacked up against others. This could be a race or virtual hike somewhere or just a total of something. One time could be how many steps, and another could be how many miles walked.
