"Our apologies for the upload issues to the Strava website during the past few hours! If you attempted to upload to Strava and received a “queued” message, or your upload appeared to be stuck while processing, we’ve now fixed the problem. Your uploads should be processed automatically by the system as we get back up to full speed (within the next hour or so). Other activity processes such as editing or sharing may also have been slow during this time, but should now improve quickly.
Thanks for your patience while we addressed these issues! "

Same problem here...latest update above..

Mine just went through there after being in the que for a time

FYI, Strava now syncs from Garmin. No need for manual uploading or using a service like CopyMySports.

You should check out 'veloviewer. com'. Provides greater breakdown of your Strava runs.

Another excellent site for Strava users is SNAP (Strava Needs a Polish) http://strava-tools.raceshape.com/snap/

It's for when you have a route gone a bit wonky due to poor GPS and needs some fixing. Excellent tool. It's by a Strava employee

Regarding the ability to suggest races to Strava, I found this (I still cannot post links sorry): https: //strava.zendesk.com/entries/52311810-Feedback-for-Featured-Running-Races

was looking at my times on strava today and they seem a bit off in two places. Would i be correct to think that strava only looks at moving time so if i stop to take a drink for 20 seconds this is not included in my time when i upload and is their any way to turn this off

fredo1664

Strava displays your "moving time", not the total time, unless you tag the activity as a race. From their blog (http /blog.strava.com/run-activity-page-updates-and-improvements-6500/):

Elapsed Time: For all runs that are NOT tagged as “Races”, we now filter resting time out of both pace analysis and the overview chart. “Races” will continue to show all elapsed time including resting, since races are a competitive effort. Segment efforts will also continue to display elapsed time.

In the overview of an activity, they display the elapsed time, just below the elevation.

scheister

thanks fredo1664 but annoying then looks like it will be back to garmin connect for me for my longer runs so

fredo1664

I've edited my post to say that they still display the elapsed time in the overview of an activity... in small print!

fredo1664

Strava support have posted a new form to request new races (I still cannot post a link...) : http: //tinyurl.com/myuqzqf

Some of you may want to request the Dublin Marathon ;-)

fredo1664

For those interested in the feature, it actually works. I've requested the Istanbul Marathon (via the last link I posted) and they added it!

Mr Freeze

Requested DCM there.

Now to sign up for it, never done it before :pac:
