Konkura

Konkura.com is based on two simple ideas: that everyone is good at something, and that almost any sport or fitness activity can be made more fun by introducing an element of friendly competition.

From keen athletes who pride themselves on being the best of the best, to people just looking to get in shape or lose weight, Konkura provides sport and fitness challenges for every interest and ability level.

Konkura is free to use and enables members to compete at their chosen challenges with people from all over the world. Members can also use their knowledge, expertise and imagination to create new challenges for everyone to participate in.

Challenges can include any measurable activity and cover all aspects of sport and fitness: skill, cardio, strength, speed, power, endurance; any activity that can be measured can be turned into a challenge.

To take part in a challenge, members post their score, together with comments, photos and videos. They can also exchange training tips and banter with other competitors about their performance.

Konkura allows members to create all sorts of challenges:

  1. Simple, single-event challenges covering any sport or fitness activity
  2. Advanced challenges featuring combinations of activities, for example turning an entire workout or weekly training programme into a challenge
  3. Sports clubs can create challenges based on their weekly training schedules, motivating team members and enabling coaches and captains to see who’s training hard (and who’s not!)
  4. Gyms and health clubs can create challenges for their members, based around particular fitness goals or exercise classes
  5. Personal trainers can create challenges for their clients, improving engagement and helping to recruit new clients
