Strava users - sharing and caring

[RunBrianRun]

I think it was a couple of years ago now when there was a post where we could share our strava names if we wanted. This would allow us to follow and encourage fellow HU VRBs on their runs.

I’m happy to share mine to get the ball rolling again if it’s considered ok to do so 😀 Plus I could use more encouragement myself 😅

Sorry I can’t help Brian. I’m not on Strava but hopefully others will be along shortly. Did you do a search here for “strava” posts?

[Irishprincess Administrator Half Marathon]

It might be this one Brian…?

Yes that’s it 👍

[Sandie1961 Half Marathon]

Already following you Brian! Anybody else had the email that Strava Premium is going up from £5.99 to £8.99 a month? I’m going back to basic free membership!

If you pay a full annual amount it isn't so much Sandie1961

👍 I am going back to a basic subscription when my renewal comes round this year. Mainly because I just don’t use most of its facilities anymore.

[Sandie1961 Half Marathon in reply to RunBrianRun]

I had a look at what you get for the paid subscription and decided it wasn’t worth it for me

[RunBrianRun Half Marathon in reply to Sandie1961]

Yep. I’ve come to the same conclusion.

I think we're already following each other, Brian! 😆

(And with renewal I'm probably going to drop the paid subscription too.)

[RunBrianRun Half Marathon in reply to nowster]

Yes we are nowster 👍

We set up a few strava groups when we did the virtual HUHMs, so you would find some users there. I am hoping to put together another virtual HUHM this spring so can start a fresh strava group for that too. I'm away just now, but when I get back at the beginning of Feb I will get onto it 😊

[SueAppleRun 10 Miles in reply to linda9389]

Oh wonderful Linda, this time round I will aim for the HM rather than 10k as long as I can Jeff it, it would take me all day to run the whole thing

[linda9389 Administrator Marathon in reply to SueAppleRun]

You could do it however you wanted!!! 😊

[SueAppleRun 10 Miles in reply to linda9389]

😃 I aim for a half this year then reduce work days and run more in June

[RunBrianRun Half Marathon in reply to linda9389]

That’s great it was really helpful last time. 👍

[SueAppleRun 10 Miles]

I follow you on Strava Brian 😃

[RunBrianRun Half Marathon in reply to SueAppleRun]

You do Sola! It’s great to have your support and encouragement. ☺️

I'm on Strava (basic) and a member of HUHM Autumn 2020 (but not the HUHM Spring 2021 one however - must have missed that - requesting to join it now) ... happy to share strava name

[RunBrianRun Half Marathon in reply to RunSkippyRun]

That’s great. RunSkippyRun once Linda has sorted the new HUHM post I’m sure we can all share in the Strava group that is setup. 👍

[Alexi_Spain Half Marathon]

I'm happy to share my Strava name too.... I am currently on the Strava annual membership and luckily I don't need to renew until the beginning of November 2023, so will wait to see..... TBH I have also got an excel sheet going, since my C25K in September 2020 that I keep a log of all of my runs/distances/times/cals burnt/SPM/HR/outside temp and humidity/av. m/km etc.... I must admit to being a bit of a geek, and loving an excel sheet!

[RunBrianRun Half Marathon in reply to Alexi_Spain]

Blimey, that’s very efficient of you Alexi_Spain 👍We can share when the Strava HUHM group is setup. Mind you I won’t be running any HMs for a good while yet. 😅

[Tabbles Half Marathon]

Can you keep me posted on the Strava group, looking to join as well
