General Chat

Hello, I am a somewhat new runner who would like some advice from any longtime runners. I am trying to find an affordable watch to use when logging my running. I have been using my phone but it is big and uncomfortable to wear on my arm so I am looking for a watch. I really just need it to log distance and time accurately. Anything else would be a bonus. I have found a few cheaper watches, but I have read reviews that say they do not log distances correctly. Any advice and suggestions would be appreciated.CoCo_Mend

Why is this happening? I have not covered this distance. I use the app on my phone Моторола G72. 

Hi everyone. My name is Gary, and I am new to Strava. I currently own a Aviron rower and have been syncing my workouts with Strava. However, I might be overlooking something, but I can't seem to find anywhere on the website or app where Strava shows the total amount of meters rowed. When I used to have a Concept2 rower, their website would show the lifetime meters rowed. Thank you.

What does the red line mean on the map that says visible?  Please see below.ThanksRon  

I have created a segment but it is'nt showing up on the explore or search functions.  I have it as a created segment and starred for my use.  It is public.  Why is it not showing up?thank you in advance.Keith

Hello. Here´s an idea. When we edit activity, we should be able to alocate more than one equipment to the same activity. For example, if we change shoes during the activity, that feature would be very usefull for counting the distance for each shoes used.What do you think about it?

Im giving up on this app, my feed is so full of strava notifications that i give up trying to find the posts i am interested in. Everything seems to be designed to encourage getting a subscription, mine stopped when the cost was secretly increased.Its sad really, this used to be a unique and useful app but there are better options out there now

Although I have not set a goal, are there any runners that might be interested in running and recording high mileage as a club/group on Strava, it can be a weekly, a monthly or a yearly total.

How was your experience?

Hi.  I've just tried to create a new segment; the correct screen flashes up then disappears to a 'blank profile' sort of screen with no options.  I've created many segments in the past and this is the first time this problem has occurred.  Any ideas?  I'm on a Mac.

Hi all,I am thinking about getting a premium membership.As I've seen that there is a coupon for a yearly membership at the end of each year in the recent years, I was thinking, if it is possible, to prolong a membership early, an make use of a coupon is available.So if I start a yeary membership now, could I prolong this membership early, let's say in December this year, and use a coupon for it then?

Hi,I submitted a support ticket yesterday evening about a segment not matching despite staying on course during the Garmin sync error. The algorithm said there was a deviation from the course at 35% despite staying on track at this stage. Could you please advise if a manual match can be made in this instance from the support ticket?Thanks a mill!

Our whole life is set up in the path of least resistance. We don't want to suffer. We don't want to feel discomfort. So the whole time, we're living our lives in a very comfortable area. There's no growth in that. - David Goggins Hey Strava Family, thank you for tuning into this week’s Tuesday Chat with Strava.My name is Bryant and today I wanted to tap into the mental aspect of being Too Comfortable. At some point in our lives, we’ve been pushed to accomplish the extraordinary. During the process, we don’t always feel we’ll make it through to the end but somehow we accomplish our goal. The part of the story that often doesn’t get talked about is the after. After we accomplish our goal what tends to happen? We get Too Comfortable. Now don’t get me wrong, I completely un
