Please note that challenges are based on points not miles. The points (EQPs) earned depend on the fare code. The range is anywhere from .5x - 1.5x the base miles flown, with a 500 EQP minimum. It sounds as if in your case you will fly enough that it won't be an issue, but just wanted you to be aware.
