You will just get the badges when you reach the required number of activites. There are ways to keep track.

This weekend I developed and launched the new Garmin Badges Calendars . Calendars are generated from the badge and challenge data in the database so you can add them to your calendar application and always stay updated with what badge or challenge to do next. There are two calendars. One for current time limited badges and one for the current challenges. Default all current challenges will be fetched, but there are options to filter the badges with two parameters. userId - Only show the challenges you have joined and still need to do. Note that you must add your data to the site for it to work.  maxduration - Only fetch challenges below or equal the max duration in days. For example if you don't want the stage 1-4 challenges to be fetched you set the limit to below 90 days, if you don't want the monthly challenges and the stage 1-4 challenges then set the limit to below 28 days. Get the URLs to the calendar files and see examples for how to use the parameters in the page Garmin
