Hi I joined the January 5k x Brooks challenge completed my 5k with run and it's not registering as completion 

Best answer by anchskier

Yeah, that one you posted would not qualify for the 5k.  It is only 3.04 miles.  5k is 3.1 miles.

Could you provide a link to your run?  We might be able to give some insight on what might have happened. It could be that it was made private so it doesn’t show up on there.  Also, if it is showing exactly 5k, it might actually be short of qualifying as the program may be displaying a rounded up value for the distance.

I've copied the link to my run but it needs to be approved by admin.

I’m surprised it hasn’t been approved yet.  Maybe you could post a screenshot of the activity?  Not sure if that would require approval as well though.

I'll do another 5k run and see if it registers if not I'll leave the challenge

Just make sure to go a bit longer than 5k just to ensure that you get credit for the distance.  I usually make sure to go about 0.1 or more miles past any specific goal distance just to be safe.
