Damnit!! I just read this in the Ts & Cs

 

You are allowed to enter for both prizes of the competition and you may enter more than once given you follow the correct process to do so.

 

So if I had 2 strava account and completed each of the challenges twice during each fortnight, I could have had additional entries, if I'm interpreting that correctly.....
