Post incorrectly marked as spam

Heya, last week I tried to submit this post, it's marked as spam for some reason. I tried to use the "report" link as suggested but it doesn't seem to have done the trick, so just asking here if a moderator could do their magic please... thanks 🙂👍

Scheduling Events Monthly - 5th Week

Strava creates 2 separate post for the same event when scheduling an event Monthly-4th Week and Monthly-Last Week. I need the Strava to recognize 5th Week for scheduling oppose to Last Week since I want the event posted only when there’s a 5th week in the month.

Unable to change email for my Strava account..no answer from support

I have tried to contact support twice during the last months by creating a support issue from the Strava app of my iPhone. I am trying to change my old email address that is registered for Strava that has been deleted for many years. I don´t have the password to change the email to my new address. I expected a reply to my new address but I feel my support issues are simply ignored. Pretty surprised since I´m paying 99nok for the app every month.

KOM using e-Bike for pacing

Hello, I would like to know what is the instance from Strava and from the community in general regarding KOMs being conquered using e-Bikes for pacing/drafting.So here is the detailed situation. Someone got the KOM in a 5 minute MTB segment while being paced / drafting an e-Bike. Should he keep his KOM?ps: the KOM ranking in question is the regular one, not the e-Bike specific ranking.

Strava refund ticket no response

Hi, I’ve submitted my first cancellation and refund ticket immediately after I was charged (13.9.2024). The ticket went straight to “solved” status without any follow up. After a couple of days I submitted another ticket explaining that my first one is marked as solved but i didn’t get any response. Second ticket is still in status “open”. About a week has passed and I still haven’t gotten any response. I understand your support team is handling a high number of requests, but would greatly appreciate if someone could look into it.

I am getting old and want to reset my PRs

Hi,Let's face the facts: I am getting older. This year has been a very tough year seeing me going thru a rough patch. So bad I had to hang up my bike for months not knowing when I'll be back on wheels, and even if I'd be able to do so. Anyways now I am back but when I am seeing my PRs, I know for a fact I will never be able to better them. Is there a way to reset all my PRs on all segments? Ideally choosing a date, say "forget all PRs set before December 1st, 2022". I read people saying to just create a new account, well it is a bit extreme because I still want to keep the statistics for distances I rode.

Strava integration with Home Assistant

Hello to all.I have a Youtube channel dedicated to home automation, mainly based on Home Assistant.https://www.youtube.com/@proyectosmicropicI have recently integrated Strava into my Home Assistant, which allows me to check the latest activities and some accumulated values on the main screen, which I find very useful.I'm going to dedicate a video on my Youtube channel to this integration and I'm writing to you in case you have any ideas to comment on or even if the Strava team would like to collaborate with me.Best regards

Montreal Marathon Bib Transfer

Hello,I'm not sure if this is the place to do this but I am desperate at this point. I signed up for the full Montreal marathon about 6 months ago but injured my knee a couple weeks ago. I know that now the transfers are to be done on-site the day of the race. But if you're interested in running the marathon please contact me.

Flagging and privacy

Good afternoon, somebody is blaming me for flagging one of his rides for performing it an e-bike instead of a road bike.He says Strava told him I flagged him, which is not true. Is it true that flagged persons are able to see who flagged them or ask the support to tell them?Is there any opportunity to find out who flagged one? Thanks in advance

2023 New York City Marathon Recap

If you haven't heard, the 2023 NYC Marathon took place on November 5, 2023 and it was an exciting one. A total of 51,402 runners participated in the event. Coming out of Addis Ababa Ethiopia, Tamirat Tola took home the 1st place finisher in the men's division. With a pace of 04:46 per mile, Tamirat finished the marathon in an official time of 2:04:58 breaking the course record Geoffrey Mutai set in 2011 by 8 seconds.  In the women's group from Boulder Colorado, Hellen Obiri took home the honor of finishing 1st. Her official finish time was 2:27:23 with a pace of 05:38 per mile. She also placed 29th overall. Overall the average time of all participants completing the marathon was 4:39:49. The average time of men finishing was 4:26:40 while the average time of women was 4:56:12. As an outsider who has never participated in a marathon I have to say, tackling a challenge like this and completing it is quite impressive. In fact participants from age groups all over weren't afraid of th

Segment / KOM speed question

I see a speed marked down next to the top 10 times for a segment or KOM. Is that speed their max speed?...or an average speed? Some of the flat segments around me are a couple of minutes long, but the leader has a speed marked down as 53km/h. I barely manage that in my highest gear on a downhilll.Any thoughts?

Let's Talk About High-Mileage Mountain Running Weeks

I slept nine hours last night for the first time in recent memory, and likely since I started my climb from 40 miles a week to 100 miles a week around two months ago. This sleep logging is actually a noteworthy "activity" and since Strava is my only social media, and I'm trying to be more social, I felt like it was worth sharing some sentiments. As such I decided to do a write-up on the experience of the marker leading up to, and my adjustments afterwards. The aforementioned mileage increase was initiated after conversing with a valued high-mileage friend, slash mountain muse, regarding some issues they were experiencing in life. Issues that I perceived to be directly, and indirectly, a result of stress load in part due to a running routine. I have also  been waiting in tow to make a leap to normalizing more trail miles for years. I moved myself near trails and tailored a work schedule for trail running over the last seven years, but more so this last year. That seems crazy t

I already sent multiple tickets for my refund

Hello, I’ve reached out to the Strava support team multiple times and submitted several tickets regarding a refund request. Unfortunately, it’s been quite a few days, and I haven’t received any response apart from an automatic bot reply. I’ve also checked my junk folder regularly, but still no updates. I’m really hoping for a prompt resolution to this issue. Your help would be much appreciated. Can someone escalate this one quickly?
