Strava

Strava combines activity recording, performance analysis, and a social network for exercise. Running is a major use, alongside cycling and other supported activities. GPS routes and activity details provide a record of training, while connections with wearable devices allow recorded sessions to enter the service from compatible equipment rather than only from the phone app. Segments compare efforts over defined sections of a route, adding a competitive element to familiar roads and trails.

Social features let participants share activities and respond to others, making Strava relevant to runners at different experience levels who want a community around their training. A free offering covers core uses, while a subscription adds analytical and training features. Its distinction is the combination of individual activity history with shared route-based comparisons and social participation.
