Get Support & camaraderie
You’ll be part of a group who are all in the same boat — pushing, struggling, showing up together. That changes everything.
Rokman challenges are a great way of keeping motivated and to keep moving. I have a job that involves lots of desk work these days, as well as a young family, so it important to me I get out and exercise. The challenges throw things in that I perhaps wouldn’t do or think to do.
Dave Hall
"The Team Rokman group is a huge part of the experience. The group is so friendly and supportive and it keeps you motivated. It's also very comforting to know that there are other people out there as daft as you doing tough challenges."
Jamie Stephenson
"Being part of Team Rokman has been an extremely positive experience for me. I was starting to fall out of love with running. So, whilst surfing the net for challenge races I stumbled upon Rokman. The rest, as they say, is history..."

The challenges was great, you could choose a level that suited you but still pushed you as you were trying to reach times and targets within your level. The chat and motivation within the group was good and really helped push you along.

I love the challenges. They are just right to push me outside of my comfort zone. The support from fellow competitors is awesome as the focused goal of the group is to challenge each other to be better.
Paul McDonald

Vicky Shipman
Absolutely love the Rokman challenge series. I like the way only one activity brief is released each week as it allows you to focus and fully engage with the challenge, there is always great support in the facebook group... will definitely be coming back for more!
Adam Badat
I love a challenge and this was the perfect fit. It was a brand new start for me after mostly gym based bodybuilding style training for years. It’s really improved my cardio and functional ability. The team are very supportive and responsive and the challenges are tough but fun.
Graham Berry
I’ve just completed the High Walk challenge (UK Special Forces) and loved it. It changed-up my normal running regime, challenged me physically, pushed me mentally as I wanted to succeed and did, I got sore legs, a pip and certificate to be proud of and a true sense of achievement.
Josie Cheshire
I found this a challenge but achievable. It's made me realise I'm made of tougher stuff than I thought. The Team Rokman Facebook group is also encouraging and everyone is super friendly. I've already signed up for another month.
Steve Sherman
Good challenges, able to fit in around training and work, all efforts scored whatever your level. Great support from the community. Nice to do something different.
Andy Laws
The challenges was great, you could choose a level that suited you but still pushed you as you were trying to reach times and targets within your level. Would recommend this to anyone who is looking to push themselves that bit harder. The chat and motivation within the group was good and really helped push you along.
Graham Taylor
Tough as old boots but very rewarding challenges, go there, sign up, get out there, and get it done... !!! Seriously these are good guys
Do I need to be mega fit?
No. Rokman challenge series offer a variety of different levels of entry to suit all fitness levels, from novice all the way up to advanced.
Can I fit the challenges around my existing training?
Absolutely. Each challenge has been designed that you can seamlessly fit them in and around your current training and your existing life commitments.
How are Rokman challenges different to other online challenges?
Rokman's superior platform allows us to go far beyond regular distance accumulator challenges. This means we're able to offer a much more varied challenges that score for time, distance, elevation, reps, rounds, beat previous, and more. Keeping you interested and excited week after week.
I'm busy. Will I have time to complete the challenges?
Yes! Each challenge has been designed that they won't take hours to complete. On longer challenges you have the option to split them into multiple, smaller activities across the week.
The challenges are given above. Why should I pay?
We charge a small, affordable fee to cover the cost of running the platform. But more importantly, paying creates buy-in. When it’s free, people flake—every time. Putting money down makes you more likely to show up, commit, and finish. Plus, your entry unlocks full access to the platform, the leaderboard, community support, and the chance to earn your Rokman Finisher’s Pip.
How does it work?
Get the brief sent your inbox at the start of each work. Attempt the challenge and evidence on your fitness tracker. Then upload your evidence to our online submission form. Simple.
Do I have to be on the leaderboards?
No, not at all. Leaderboards are opt-in, so if you'd rather tackle the challenges in private, you can.
How long do we have to complete each challenge?
We recommend that you complete each challenge within 7-days from the date of issue. However, we understand that life can often get in the way, so that’s why accept submissions up until 7-days after the end of the monthly series.
What is someone cheats?
We do our very best to weed out any cheating by asking people to evidence their challenge attempts. However, due to the nature of this being an online challenge series, it’s not 100% fool proof.We have to take everyone’s submissions at face-value. If we can confidently identify people either cheating or doing the challenge incorrectly, we will notify the competitor privately via email.At the end of the day, the leaderboard is just a bit of competitive fun. These challenges are personal tests of resilience. If people decide to cheat, they’re only cheating themselves. If you concentrate on yourself and give your best honest performance then you can hold your head high at the end of the day.
What if I don't enjoy it, can I get a refund?
Absolutely! If you try it and decide it's not for you, we offer a 30-day no questions asked money back guarantee.
Can I use a treadmill?
All running challenges are designed to undertaken outside, however, if you are unable to go outside we will accept treadmill entries. If participating on a treadmill, the treadmill must be set at a 2.5 degree angle.
