I uploaded a treadmill run to Strava for the first time yesterday. However, it added the time where I stopped my watch to use the restroom as part of the run. Is there a way to have Strava use "moving time" instead of "elapsed time" for a treadmill run as it does for an outdoor run?
Thanks for your help.
Strava does a lot of things backwards in this regard, at least in my opinion. They respect stopping the watch and allow distance correction of GPS runs (expect for segments of course), but don't for non-GPS runs. The GPS is going to be way more accurate than a wrist based accelerometer. My Garmin would very reluctantly stray from an assumed 8:30 pace on the treadmill. I would always have to add a manual entry for the missed distance. Got a foot pod recently and it now seems to be a pretty consistent 15 seconds slower than the treadmill's reported pace. 6:15 is much better than the 7:24 or so it used to record at 10mph, so I just accept the Garmin distance now.
If you use a Garmin, you can download the .fit file from Garmin Connect to your computer, upload that file to Strava, and then it will show your actual running time instead of the elapsed time.
Easy solution: Log in to Strava, edit the workout, and unclick the "Treadmill" button. After that, your run is reported by moving time rather than elapsed time.
Worked perfectly. Thanks
Running on the treadmill is odd. I can be running at 6mph and be right at 8 min miles when it should be closer to 10 and if I bump it up to 7mph it feels much more difficult my hr increases 5-8 bpm and I’m still running right around 8 min miles.
Only place is events out for me is around 9.5 mph I’m running between 6:15-6:30
