Don’t any of your Strava followers question the integrity of the workouts as it would be VERY simple to fake them?

Posting manual uploads 10 times a week surely raises some eyebrows amongst your followers and friends?

If you post fake workouts on Strava, you're a loser. If you care about other people posting fake workouts, you're an even bigger loser.

This^

Just run.

He has uploaded this activity MANUALLY to strava so it could be COMPLETE LIES! He could’ve at least used the inaccurate watch sensor data just to prove he was actually doing SOMETHING.

Also NO MENTION if he put the treadmill on a 1% incline.

Thoughts?

I think you need to chill

woah, hang on... there's nothing 'loser' about challenging a running buddies fake workout on strava! we got to call these people out. next off you'll be saying only losers call out people who lie about L-carnitine injections.

I'm calling you out for being a pile of sht. It's important that I stand up and say something.

RELEASE THE GPS DATA

JUSTICE WILL BE SERVED

WALLMSLEY ID NOT RUN THIS WORKOUT

Is there anyone in flagstaff that can confirm Jim ran this ‘indoor’ workout yesterday or today? On a treadmill or a track?

I just don’t understand why he would use a manual upload, seems very suspect imo

The fact he manually uploaded it instead of not stressing about it means he did not feel relaxed. Not relaxed converts to at least 20s/mile.

if You are a troll....you are a lame ass wuss...as all trolls are.

If you are not a troll...this is the oddest, most stalker-ish, obsessive, weirdness ever.

There are like 6321 reasons one might manually upload a workout....the idea that the most famous and highest paid ultra runner in North America would want to exaggerate a workout for strata is sorta like saying steph curry was lying about how many free throws he hit the other day...what on earth would be he point?

Folks who love him don’t care if he posts a workout and folks who don’t love him find a way to dismiss anything he does. There is literally no rational Justification for this thread....and now I feel silly and dirty for even having participated.

Liarzzzzz

Just looked at WeatherUnderground for Flagstaff yesterday. At noonish (the time that he ran) winds were 31 MPH out of Northeast with 48 MPH gusts. I do think that qualifies as windy as hell...

Maybe for some guys

You'd think if a person were to upload a fake workout it would be an impressive one.

I would guess that Curry could hit 99 out of 100 practice free throws.

With a 31 mph tail wind, he could run 3 times a mile at 4:10 to 4:15. No big deal, joggers.

One of them being to deceive people about his potential performance on Saturday.

If he manually uploaded a 60 flat half marathon I’m sure plenty of folks would be asking if it was real or fake.

Why is this even a thread?? Have you ever run on an indoor track? The GPS doesn't work indoors, but humans can remember how many laps they've run and how many minutes it took to run said laps. Then, they can go home and manually enter that data into Strava so it becomes part of their training log.

I am equally guilty for reading and contributing to this, so I will now punch my own self in the face in shame.

C'mon Scotty, you know that workout was the final cherry-on-top of a great build-up informing us Mr. Walmsley is now dialed-in and is ready to go.

Saturday, my friend.

He didn’t say treadmill.

Troll
