Strava glitch?

I have noticed that Strava sometimes logs a run with the wrong date. Has anybody else had this problem? I use Strava on my Samsung gear watch, rather than directly from my phone and it then syncs. The run on the left was on 1st Nov, and the the run on the right was today, but has logged as the 1st again. It’s so annoying....😡

I've never had a date problem with Strava. I hope someone is able to help 😊

As far as I know you can’t edit the run in Strava... but you can export the .gpx file, edit it to change the date and then delete strava’s copy and re upload your new version.

Alternatively take down the details of the run, delete it and manually add one in... but this will, I believe, delete any achievements you got on that run too.

Strava won’t let people edit the date easily because of the challenges that they run, which is a pain in the butt.

Yes it is, and too much of a pain to bother.....at least I have the runs recorded in my diary, and I know I run Mon/Wed/Fri, well up to now! Thanks anyway 😁

Thanks for that. I read it earlier, but other than resetting my time zone, it’s all Chinese to me. I reset the zone and we’ll see. Somebody also recommended deleting the app and reinstalling, a bit like switch off and on again! If all else fails I’ll try mapmyrun 😁. Thanks for taking the time to look. Choo-choo till tomorrow 🤣
