Hi Strava community,

I am pretty new to running, only starting in April of this year. I have made many silly mistakes so far, but the biggest (tracking wise) has been using the Run-GPS when using a treadmill. I did this for about 2 weeks before realizing the impact it had. I’d like these runs to not count towards my PBs/PRs but still be in my activity feed/overall totals. I have seen a few options from my searches such as flagging them, or changing them to ‘workouts’ instead of ‘runs’, but I’m concerned it would mess with my numbers. 

So, please let me know what would be the best course to keep my mileage and number of runs, but exclude these from my personal bests.

Thanks so much!

Hi ​@KyleDoherty,

in the mobile app, go to tab You > tap your profile picture in top left > scroll a bit down and tap Best Efforts. At that screen, you can go through distances and view your top 3 efforts for each; if there's an incorrect one, tap the down-arrow at that effort (top-right) and then Remove Effort. It will not remove the activity itself, only the personal best.
