Striiv Challenges and Races: Double Up!

Is it possible to complete a challenge and race Walkatron at the same time?  Absolutely!  When you accept a challenge, click Start but don't start moving just yet.  Don't worry; in 99% of challenges you won't run out of time.  Instead, go back to the home page (twice), click on race, then Walkatron.  Ignore the others -- all three are much slower than you are, so may as well go for the triple points.  If you accepted a stair challenge, then do a stair race that is a little longer.  If you accepted a time (minutes of activity) or steps challenge, then do stair races, if you can, during the entire time.  If you're legs need a break, switch to a step race.

By the way, if you run up the stairs, Striiv will give you the 10x points for the stairs, but not the 5x points for the running at the same time.  So if you can (carefully) run DOWN the stairs, you will get running credits going down and stair credits going up.

For instance, today I decided to work out at a 6-story parking garage, which allows me to do the Hotel 80-stair race as quickly as I can.  When I spun the Run (+650) Steps in 10 minutes I started it at the top of the stairs, and gained 80 running steps on the way down, then did another 80-stair race, then ran down... I did it 8 times in less then the 10 minutes, which gave me 7500 energy for the challenge, plus around 175,000 for winning the 8 races by an average of 28 stairs.  Then I rested.... and spun for the next challenge.
