Footpod + Treadmill for Continued Strava Awesomeness Thru Winter?

I'm in the same situation. Foot pod vs TM speed is BS. I just go by heart rate..

If my HR on a flat road or track is 80% at 7:50 per mile, for example, then that's the sort of data I use to quantify my daily running workout. In other words as per the example, when-on the TM, my heart rate hits 80% of max, then I believe I:M running at a 7:50 pace.

Get out of here hobby joggers. Who runs on a treadmill? Go outside

EXACTLY. Anyone who says "Strava Awesomeness" should be permanently banned from this website and have any of their prior posts deleted. There are basic guidelines for decency here.

Hobbyjoggers JOG on a treadmill. The only people who actually run on those things are the meathead lifters and crossfitters who jump on, set the pace at 6:40 and do their mandatory 2 minutes of cardio.

I want to be able to keep logging my workouts on Strava when I'm stuck on the treadmill. Do I just need to buy a footpod for my Garmin? My treadmill times tend to be really bogus already, even with a 1% incline. Will they be even less accurate if I try and use my Garmin to keep track of mileage?

I think you meant to go to these forums:

Aaah, so using Strava makes me a hobby jogger like Sage Canaday and all of these guys?:

And sorry that I live in a city and have to run indoors sometimes because my running trails aren't always plowed and I'm not close to any roads that don't have traffic lights after each block.

Are there any non-trolls out there??

I would have to answer yes based on that photo.

I am so sorry for including an entire chapter dedicated to treadmill training in my book. If I had only known that it wouldn't have met LRC standards, it would have never happened. Again, please forgive me, oh supreme authority on acceptable running practices.

Sorry,

"Strava awesomeness" = immature hobbyjogger

footpod = hobbyjogger

wearing a garmin on a treadmill = major hobbyjogger

jogging on a treadmill = hobbyjogger

Take this shit to runnersworld, hobbyjogger.

Who the hell says "awesomeness" after age 16?

Using Stava doesn't make one a hobby jogger, but doing something FOR Strava certainly does.
