How Meters Are Counted in Fundraisers
Meters in an ErgZone fundraiser are counted automatically based on athlete participation in associated ErgZone events. This article explains how meters are collected, calculated, and displayed during a fundraiser.
Associated Events
Each fundraiser is linked to one or more ErgZone competitions or groups.
Only meters completed in these associated events are eligible to be counted toward the fundraiser.
Athlete-Based Meter Totals
Meters are counted per athlete.
For each participating athlete:
- All eligible meters completed in the associated events are totaled
- Meter totals are calculated individually, not combined across athletes
- Meter progress updates in real time during the fundraiser
Date and Time Limits
Meters are counted only when workouts meet both of the following conditions:
- The workout belongs to an associated event
- The workout is completed within the fundraiser’s start and end dates
Workouts completed outside the fundraiser timeframe are not included.
Eligible Workouts
Only workouts completed through the ErgZone app and recorded as part of the associated event are counted.
Workouts completed outside of the event, or not linked to the fundraiser, are not included.
Meter Visibility
Meter totals are visible in real time:
