For the love of Merckx, STOP! Strava is no place for politics!

I just saw a "Cyclists for {politician}" Group. AWFUL!  Don't we get enough of this garbage everywhere else in our lives? Can't I go to the one place where I can focus on my athletic goals and sports hobby without being inundated with politics!?  For the love of Merckx, STOP!

Mileage update for bikes prior to using Strava.

I've been using Strava for a few years and entered all of my bikes.  Most of them were prior to using Strava so the mileage log starts from that date.  Is there any way to update that with the total mileage ridden prior to the Strava start date?

Welcome to the Hub - December Edition!

December is here! Whether it’s your first time visiting the Community Hub, or if you’re one of our regulars, thanks for stopping by, we’re happy you’re here!                                                          As we enter the final month of 2023, the days are getting shorter and colder in most places in the northern hemisphere. December brings the winter solstice on the 21st that marks the shortest day of the year north of the equator. Conversely the southern hemisphere will enjoy their longest day of the year with the summer solstice.  With temperatures dropping, many folks move their workouts indoors. You can record a number of indoor activities with Strava including yoga, rock climbing, HIIT and many more. For more information, take a look at this post.  Zwift has also become a popular alternative for many cyclists. We have a

Let's Talk Turkey Trots!

If you like community events and live in the United States, there’s a good chance that you have participated in a Turkey Trot. As the name suggests, the Turkey Trot is derived from one of the most common foods served at Thanksgiving dinner, the turkey. Turkey Trots bring communities together and are fun for the whole family.  It all began in Buffalo, New York back in 1896 when the local YMCA (Young Men's Christian Association) hosted an 8K race. Six people signed up and just four of them crossed the finish line. This year, the YMCA Turkey Trot will mark its 128th consecutive start making it the longest consecutively run race in the world. This turkey trot has become one of the most popular races on Thanksgiving; there is so much interest that it is now capped at 14,000 participants. This event raises more than $300,000 for YMCA Buffalo Niagara and proceeds raised go back into the community to help local families in need of financial assistance.Many Turkey Trots are considered

Subscriptions

I'm missing my favourite features .. what happened Strava? Over 10 years full featured paying member and all of a sudden I can't compare my results with other cyclists in my age category. Why did I not get a notification of this change. At least I could have decided to upgrade my subscription.

Hi from Minnesota!

Hi there everyone. I can't believe I've been using Strava since 2011 and I never joined the Community till now!I live in Minnesota and participate in a number of endurance sports. For cycling categories, I do fat tire (studded tires for fear free winter riding!), road (time trials, structured workouts, fun rides), gravel, and dabble in cyclocross. Trail running, road running, and I started racewalking in August 2023. First racewalking meet on December 10! I also do strength training and love Kelly Starrett's mobility activities. I loathe doing endurance work indoors, so I cycle, run, and racewalk outside no matter the weather. It can be a challenge when it's -10 degrees F or lower, but with the right gear (including an Airtrim mask), I get it done. 🥳🥶☃

How many un-synced training sessions?

I plan to do a thru-hike similar to the Pacific Crest Trail where there could be a few days without cell service.I know the Strava app can allow you to save un-synced training sessions. I just tested and was able to save 10. My tests were short, just a few minutes long. I wonder if I can save several long days hiking un-synced. For example Is there a data limit?

Does Strava primarily focus on running and cycling?

I love to stay active and enjoy a range of outdoor activities like golf, walking, running, and hiking. However, I've noticed that most of the fitness platforms are more focused on running when it comes to tracking my progress. For example, even though I've covered almost 300km of hiking, the platform only displays my 80km of runs. I'm wondering if there's a way to get a more accurate representation of my overall fitness activities on these platforms. Do you have any suggestions or insights on how to manage this?

(RESOLVED) Not recording moving time correctly for Android version 331.9 & 332.10

I use Strava on a Samsung S22.  Recently it has stopped recording moving time correctly.  Take today.  Did a 3.74 ml hike.  Elapsed time 1:52:22, moving time 0:44:20!  This gives an average moving pace of 11:58/mile, which is just not right.  Max speed was 23.4 mph!!  Have tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling it again without success.  Any suggestions?

2500 miles before November 14, 2024

Hi Everyone, I want to set a goal to do 2500 miles by running, biking, walking, swimming, crawling, etc before my 47 birthday. Is there a section in Strava where I can set that as a customized goal? I want to be able to track my progress on Strava and brag about it.

Voice over in Strava Apps

Ref this. I find that voice over volume and the way lady communicate needs to be improved.  I find of Nike very good. instead of every .5 kms it should be made available in. 25 kms wise also as it will help monitor pace.

Type 1 diabetes numbers side by side with strava activity data

Hello, community; I started running three years ago so far, I have three marathons under my belt. The complicated part of my runs is my type 1 diabetes and ensuring I do not drop too low or jump too high. What I would love to get is a CSV file of my runs detailing the time of day for each mile. I am able to export my glucose numbers for every 15-minute interval during the day. If I could compare those numbers with my strava activity data, I would know exactly which mile my numbers began to fall or rise.

Bug Report

Hello,For the past 2 rides, I noticed that Strava data is not update on my PR times. A certain segment keeps showing my old PR even though I have beaten that PR twice in 2 days. I have tried refreshing segment data with no success. As you can see in screenshot, my new PR from today shows 1:11 but if you look at the “your PR” it shows my old PR of 1:35 It did this yesterday when I set a new PR of 1:20. Any ideas? Thank you.
