Hi,

(Not sure this is the right space for suggestions/requests, but here goes).

It would be nice if I could have Birding as an activity instead of grouping it under ‘Walking’, There are a lot of us birders out there, and you could have some pretty cool challenges too. As an aside, it would create interesting splits between elapsed and moving times. I found out today that about 1/3 of my birding time is standing around! Not sure if you partner or collab, but the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, the Audubon Society and any number of global/national/regional birding organizations/groups might be interested. 

Personally, I’d like to have it a separate ‘sport’ so that it doesn’t mix up my walking stats. Although on that note ‘Dog Walking’ would be nice too - my old doggo is only a little faster than my birding!

 

Thanks,

Alison W.
