Questions about the amount of steps for individuals in the Samsung Health challenge

[scruffy33]

I am a fairly active individual and normally get between 13K and 18K steps a day.  I noticed that the top individuals in the challenge average over 90K steps in a day.  Allowing for sleep, this is about 6K steps an hour.  I question that someone can make that many steps.  I realize this is a fun challenge, but I don't know how these individuals get that many steps legitimately.

Does anyone else question this?

Fraud in the new Samsung Health challenge.
The FIRST day, the top 10 people finished the challenge. 200,000 steps in one day.
200,000 steps is about 50 miles if you assume an average step length of 2.5 feet.

My question would be how do they verify it

That is the first day

There are 107 people that finished the challenge on day 2 as you can see in the screenshots

Let's average 3 miles walking is an hour so they would be walking 7 plus hours

😂 This is totally unfair. Samsung isn't enforcing their own policy.
I have no aspirations of winning, don't get me wrong
I just want the numbers to be truthful. @samsung
