Hi,

I have been running in this winter (Canada). I was wondering if we can create a factor to reduce or adjust pace vs effort perception to work better in training zones. Essentially, the same location can be used a reference to adjust training zones and pace expected in normal and snow conditions. This can be helpful to control the pace during the training and guide efforts.

Hope this can be interesting for more people.

This could be used for beaches and other difficult surfaces as well. But you would have to create it as an idea in https://communityhub.strava.com/ideas in order to get votes and get the infinitesimal chance that Strava considers it.
