The short version is you need to be in North, Central or South America to participate.

The long version, per the official rules -

    "Western hemisphere" will be defined by the Prime Meridian, not the 180th, and countries that are in the western hemisphere but sit on the continents of Africa or Europe are not eligible. This map is the official map for reference of eligibility:

    Further, in keeping with the Bolivarian spirit of the Challenge, residents of French Guyana, Greenland, Cook Islands, Curaçao, Aruba, and Saint Martin are ineligible.
