Well the good news is Strava works with VRWC and my 9k today registered. Unfortunately Strava location went bonkers and logged it at 25.7k which I think is why it hasn't registered me as qualifying yet

🤣

If you’re using more than one tracker, and they’re all linked to the WC site, then the site is combining them all as one run! It’s a bug apparently, and they’re working on it 😁

Tech is so great when it works but as you've found out it sometimes goes a bit mad. 🤣

I could tell something was going wrong when run keeper told me every 5 minutes I had run 1.6 kilometers and my pace was dropping. I think it must have been a GPS problem. My husband tells me that's why he uses a Garmin not his phone and to save phone battery. Oh well looks like I know what to ask for as a present (or to get myself if it happens again)

But Google fit captured it without me doing anything all on the same phone.

Yesterday was really tech fail day.

Google fit then added the walk from my house post shower to go out for dinner with the family and back home and made it 12k over 3.5 hours so it is non qualifying.

Sunday is great run local with the kids my 5k should be a qualifying run providing the tech is up to it🤷‍♀️

Update, helpful vrwc admin has removed my cheating run. My great run local 5k this morning qualified. All good, apart from I'm no longer Team HU distance leader🤣
