e7andy mentioned biking, but it would be the same for running - only runs recorded by a Garmin device count towards badges and challenges. Manually added, or imported activities do not count.
I can't access them.
Why do you tell you cannot access them, when you posted their screenshots? You apparently can access them, if you were able to take the screenshots. Or do the screenshots…
Are you biking indoors with Zwift? Zwift do not count for challenges. Read more here: forums.garmin.com/.../zwift-rides-no-longer-count-towards-challenges
You have joined the challenge. You will only see that page after you have joined it.
I still can't access on the app
You have to tap the link "All Current Challenges", and scroll rather far down, until you see the 2021 Running - Stage 1 challenge.
That are two different issues.
1. You can't see the challenges in the app. Are you running the latest version of the app?
2. No miles registered in the challenge you have joined. Could you post a web link to a run activity and make it public so we can see if we see any issues with it? Common issues are that the wrong activity type are used and that the activity isn't logged with a Garmin device. You also need to join the challenge before you do the activity (it could be fixed afterwards by making an edit to the activity).
I accessed through the link and the challenges registered... but still nothing on the app
This is the Cycling Stage 1 Challenge - your orginal post was asking about the Running Stage 1 Challenge. So if your activites were runs, then they will not show up under the cycling challenge. Also keep on mind what we wrote earlier - imported activities, like for example those from Zwift, or from other external apps, will not count towards the challenges.
