AGE IS JUST A NUMBER
AND YOU ARE SO MUCH MORE THAN A NUMBER!
The Wisdom Warrior Challenge (WWC) is a unique track event for senior living communities! What started as 19 seniors training together for a local 5K now involves more than 1,000+ participants in a national competition! And it’s absolutely FREE to every participant thanks to our generous sponsors!
Participating senior communities are given all the tools required to host a WWC track event for their residents that will earn them points in both a local and national competition!
Qualifying is easy – participants must be 50 years of age or older and able to repeat the statement: “Age is just a number, and I am so much more than a number!”
The competition is broken down into several different distances and various age categories – including a wheelchair division! Participants receive stocked up swag bags, t-shirts, and medals.
The WWC is a fantastic opportunity to engage senior community residents in health and wellness programs, as well as involve the local community through sponsorships, awards ceremonies and vendor expos!

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
What went through your mind as your crossed over the finish line?
"I really didn't think I was going to be in the race because I had a back problem. I said 'well, let me sign up for the shortest one' and uh... I came in second! I started walking and I just developed into a run! Then I won 2 events!"
- Fred U.
What would you say to someone who is thinking about participating?
"It leaves you with a great sense of accomplishment! It was a nice experience. When I got my medal, I was proud as punch!"
- Naomi R.
How has participating in WWC changed your life?
"I think the main thing about it is it's an incentive to get going. I continue to walk to this day! I walk about 2 miles, some days more, some days less."
