Hi All,

I know you can crop a run however when I do Parkrun the route goes under a large highway bridge and the distance is too short, not too long. I can't figure out how to add the extra distance into the activity in my Strava app. I have the paid version and can edit in Garmin, just not in Strava. It seems odd to me if this is not possible. Am I missing something?

Hey @SteveDark,

When editing an activity, unfortunately distance cannot be added. 


This is stupid for indoor activities like treadmill or stationary cycling. Strava's estimated distance is never correct. On my old Galaxy 2 watch I could correct the distance on the watch when I was finished before uploading. Now I just do manual entry on PC but lose all my heart rate data etc. In the age of people using surrogate runners for GPS and all kinds of shenanigans there is no reason we shouldn't be able to edit distance data for indoor running and similar activities. Paying member (for now)


The activity in Strava for indoor is wildly inaccurate. In Garmin I can edit the distance to make it right but Strava has a pace that's not even remotely accurate. It has me doing 7.5min/mi when they should be close to 10. This should be editable.


This is so stupid. I understand the whole don’t cheat thing, but I ran my fastest 10k today. I beat my last PR by 2 minutes. But Strava only recorded 6.16 miles, making my run short by .4 miles. Since it doesn’t register as a 6.2, it doesn’t appear on the 10k analysis page.  :|  not happy or pleased.
