Over Achiever Badge
  • ChaunceChaunce April 2011
    Warm Up
    How to unlock:
    1. Create an account with RunKeeper
    2. Link your account to Foursquare (Settings > Apps)
    3. Download RunKeeper app (iOS or Android only)
    4. Log 5 different activities (by gps phone)
    5. Travel at a realistic speed for the activity you are logging

    Unfortunately RunKeeper doesn't plan on having BlackBerry app.
    ALSO, MANUAL ENTRIES THROUGH THEIR WEBSITE DO NOT COUNT TOWARDS THIS BADGE

    Does anyone know more details about this badge? I popped the other 3 today, but can't pop this one. Do the activities have to be different days? I know I have logged more than 5 activities over a 2 day period.
  • JR1JR1 August 2011
    @Beerknurd when I got this badge I had to do activities on 5 dif days before I unlocked it.
  • BeerknurdBeerknurd August 2011
    @JR1 Cool, I will give it another few days. I appreciate your help.
  • JR1JR1 August 2011
    @Beerknurd no prob. Hope it works for you like it did for me. These badges have been giving people trouble ever since they changed the rules to require people to only use a smarthpnoe app to log activities instead of also being able to enter them on their website.
  • BeerknurdBeerknurd August 2011
    @JR1 I didn't have any issues getting the other badges. I got them all driving in my car... lol
  • BrenBren August 2011
    hmmm odd on my runkeeper account it says badges are unlocked but they don't show up in my trophy case for some odd reason, anyone gotta clue?
  • BeerknurdBeerknurd August 2011
    Just an FYI for anyone trying to get this badge or having any difficulty. All you have to do is log 5 different activities. Running, Swimming, Mountain Biking, Hiking, Bicyling, Etc using the GPS function. It does not have to be over a 5 day period. I popped all 4 Runkeeper badges in 3 days.
  • BrenBren August 2011
    Like I said tho i got the badges doing everything right but they don't show unlocked on Foursquare. On the Runkeeper site it says you have unlocked the 5K badge blah blah blah.
  • BeerknurdBeerknurd August 2011
    @Bren Have you tried unlinking your 4sqr account from Runkeeper and then linking it back? Not sure, but you may have to do the badges over again if you do that. Either that or email Runkeeper support for help.
  • BrenBren August 2011
    I don't think I'll contact any of the 2 as I didn't get these the legit way although I did run a 5K obstacle Spartan race a couple months ago. anyhow I'll keep trying maybe deleting my account and retrying will work.
  • wonggrabagwonggrabag August 2011
    Can I unlock this badge using my notebook? Because I dont have Iphone or Android phone.
  • BeerknurdBeerknurd August 2011
    @wonggrabag Unfortunately not. You will need to have this on a smartphone.
  • DanDan August 2011
    RunKeeeper has just released a new App version on 08/24/11. In the new version Foursquare is not listed anywhere to link or share or connect. Does this mean these Runkeeper badges are no longer obtainable?
  • JR1JR1 August 2011
    @Dan .. If you goto their website you can still link it there along with the 5 other things you can link ur acct with including the fitbit. Also there are still posts for unlocks of all the runkeeper badges posting on twitter.
  • DanDan August 2011
    Thanks JR...whose website? 4square or Runkeeper? Oh and DANG bro don't you go to sleep?!?!? LOL! (I need to learn how to hit the reply button instead of posting a new comment)
  • DanDan August 2011
    Thanks JR...whose website? 4square or Runkeeper? Oh and DANG bro don't you go to sleep?!?!? LOL!
  • JR1JR1 August 2011
    @Dan The runkeeper website. Goto their site and login. Then in the top right corner you will see a tab with your user name on it. Click on the downward facing triangle next to ur user name then click on my settings. When that page opens on the left hand side click on the apps tab. Once that page opens scroll down and you will see the spot to like 4sqr to runkeeper (should be teh 3rd one down under twitter). And no I dont sleep lol.. I have too much going on in life to ever get any sleep. I think I get like 3-4hrs a night tops. Has worked fine for me for as long as I can remember so I will just stick w/ it.. LOL but on the thought of sleep I think I am going to try to go get some now.
  • DanDan August 2011
    Got it thanks JR! Rest well!
  • MarcosSilveiraMarcosSilveira August 2012
    this out now?
  • jimmyongahjimmyongah August 2012
    nope, still unlocking
  • Morpheus August 2012
    I got warm up and over achiever but can't get the other two .. every time I hit stop when I get to the correct distance the program never saves it correctly? my 26.2 miles saved as 84 miles . my 5k is 175k .. anyone else having weird problems with the program itself?
  • Morpheus August 2012
    follow up.. Got the other two badges .. just had to redo em. Still no idea what caused the first two glitches
  • iMSivamiMSivam February 25
    I've already done more than 5 activities (Running, Walking, Cycling, Mountain Biking, Swimming, Skating), and I'm yet to get this Over Achiever badge. I've checked in the RunKeeper website, and yes under Apps, it is connected with my foursquare app. Also I already got WarmUp badge. Its really difficult to obtain this one, I don't know why I haven't got this one. Plus all the activities I'm tracking via GPS only.
  • travis April 23
    I'm in the same boat, just logged 5 different activities from my iPhone and no badge unlock. Linked and relinked at the runkeeper.com site as well, but still no dice...is this still unlocking for anyone else?
  • jonathanB April 23
    Yes my friend unlocked all runkeeper today.
