Short answer
Looking for a 75 Soft alternative that fits in one week? The 3-Day Walk & Water Challenge keeps two of its habits, daily movement and water, and shrinks the commitment to three days. You walk with a team of two to four on a live leaderboard, winners go up Friday, and a new round starts Tuesday.

Choose a comfortable starting walk and get a gradual three-day schedule.
Long challenges are all-or-nothing: miss day 36 and it feels like starting over. A three-day round never asks for more than this week, and a miss is just a fresh start next Tuesday.
Daily movement and water, the two habits most women want to keep. What you drop: the 75-day countdown and doing it alone. What you add: a team of two to four and a result every Friday.
Join a team of 2–4, walk & drink your water Tuesday to Thursday, and see the winners Friday.

The 3-Day Walk & Water Challenge
Two to four of you on one team: a friend’s, your own, or one you join in the app. Your team gets a name, a crest & a spot on the live leaderboard.
Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday. A step goal & a water goal sized to where you are today. The board updates as you walk & closes Thursday at midnight, Arizona time.
Friday morning the results go up. The winning team’s card glows gold, badges land beside names on the board, and a new round starts Tuesday.
A team’s score is its average per woman, not its total. So two friends can beat a team of four, and every walker’s day counts the same. When one of you goes quiet, the others notice & send a nudge in team chat.
Same spirit: show up every day for movement & water. Different shape: short rounds, a small team & a finish line every Friday.
A daily walk sized to you & a water goal that suits you. Nothing else to track.
Tuesday to Thursday. Short enough to start this week, long enough to feel it.
Your team of two to four sees your days on the board, and Friday shows how you did.
No. Get Your BMR & Walk & Water are not affiliated with 75 Soft. This is a shorter, team-based challenge built around two of the same habits.
Yes. A new round starts every Tuesday, and about 7 in 10 women who finish a round play the next one.
Pick it back up the next day. There is no going back to Day 1, and your team will be glad you’re back.
