Did you have the lunar new year challenge? I wonder if people only got lunar new year or unity, but not both. Did anyone get both?
I didn’t see the Unity one before. I should be able to get that one too
I have to admit, I like these sorts of challenges (more so than the monthly ones), because of the nice badges that are unique to each "event".
I only have the Unity challenge showing up on my phone and watch.
I see both the Lunar New Year and Unity challenges in the Fitness app on my iPhone (iOS 15.3):
same here, heart month challenge not visible yet but I think it starts 2/14 ...
I got mine yesterday as well. I'll post a screenshot after work today.

I have to do 367.8 miles…I wonder what the average sixty three year old should be expected to do! My legs ache! The trouble with these challenges is they keep pushing it. I see no reason for the exact same challenge to be repeated or perhaps give a choice of challenges and pick an appropriate one you know if I’d pulled a hamstring the mileage one would be out but I could still do a calorie or minute focused target. This will challenge until there’s an ultimate failure. Probably put the Watch away then.
I agree, they really need to tweak the algorithm for these challenges. Prior to January I missed like the previous 3, but I've decided I really don't care if I miss them. I usually come pretty close so I know I'm already putting in a lot of effort.
So my monthly challenge is 2400 exercise minutes, which calculates out to 85 minutes per day. Well, I worked 12 high school basketball games over the weekend to get off to a blazing start. I now need an average of 72 minutes over the rest of the month.
The unity challenge never showed as an “available” challenge to me, however, I did receive the award yesterday, so somethings ticking.

Yep, the algorithm is questionable to say the least, and for all I know it has been the same for years. We’ve discussed this many times here already, I am for the most part ignoring these challenges, if I make them, great, if not, great.
My personal advice: set your own goal and meet that!
The “pre-award” heart challenge showed up for me today. 30 exercise minutes on Valentine’s Day is the challenge this year. No problem.
yea, got it too ... last year it was 60 min and the years before closing exercise ring 7 times in a row ... going downhillThe “pre-award” heart challenge showed up for me today. 30 exercise minutes on Valentine’s Day is the challenge this year. No problem.
I’ll get that licked before breakfast.The “pre-award” heart challenge showed up for me today. 30 exercise minutes on Valentine’s Day is the challenge this year. No problem.
In my monthly challenge I’m down to 6.8 miles a day from 7.7 at the start. So well on track.
Has anyone actually gotten the badge? I had 32 minutes of exercise before noon today, and the badge has still not activated...
