A student can record and store their performance from the route in two ways:

1) in a mobile phone application

2) by smart watch or cycle computer (Garmin, Polar, Suunto,…)


1) Using a smart phone


-          Students should install the following app in their mobile  STRAVA: Run & Ride Training

(orange logo)


How to record an activity including 2 photos from the route?

- open the app Strava now installed in your mobile and click on RECORD in the middle at the bottom
of the screen

- go to Settings (top left) – click on Auto-pause ON (the time stops 10 seconds after each pause in
activity)

- choose an activity (run, ride, walk, inline skate) and click on START (you don't need mobile data
or Wi-Fi)

- don't forget to take at least 2 selfies on your mobile during your activity.  Otherwise, your
activity can be classified as WARNING!!!

Your tutor will always check whether the 2 (or more) photos taken during your activity match the
student's face with that of your IS photograph.  These photos should be taken at various points
during your activity.  They will not be accepted from the beginning and end of the route since they
can be misused.

It is essential to allow Location in your camera settings – for Android  (in newer versions of IOS
on iPhones the location of the photo is automatically stored in maps/routes) - otherwise the photo
will not appear on the route/map. Your tutor cannot accept an activity without a photo on the route
since it could be misused.  Strava only displays the photos on the map  on the PC version, not on
the mobile version.

- click on FINISH once you have completed the activity

- give any name to the activity and add the 2 photos from the route (add photos) and click on SAVE
ACTIVITY


- After saving the activity, whenever you connect to mobile data or Wi-Fi, the activity will record
into the Strava Club (i.e. the group you have already chosen – you must already be a member) . Then
you should insert your total number of activities into the activity commentary,  (i.e.
1.,2.,3.,…12), along with the total time and distance for all the completed activities included the
current ones (e.g. 3./25km/150min). This helps give a better overview and totals.


- The tutor will confirm your activity by clicking on  “Kudos” (your activity's “like u”) – which
means that everything is OK and that your activity has been recognised.

- We recommend recording the activities regularly, ideally after completing each one.


2) Using a smart watch or a cycle computer (Garmin, Polar, Suunto,…)


-          Record and save activities on your smart watch or cycle computer in the usual way you
are used to.  The only difference is that you need to synchronise and save your activities on
STRAVAà open the STRAVA app on your PC (this cannot be done on the mobile version), login, click on
SETTINGS - MY APPS - connect with GARMIN or alternative app (top right, your profile photo).


- The synchronizing and recording of data in Strava may also be set up in the device's SW (Garmin
Connect / Polar Flow / Suunto Moveslink,…)

For example, in Garmin, you should open Garmin connect on your PC – Account settings – Account
Information – Strava is at the bottom – Shared data from Garmin Connect to Strava – Activity
(change to green mode)


-          If you are unsure about anything, contact your tutor for the subject in question
