Why I switched from using MapMyRun To Strava.

PSA: No one's paying me to make this video, but anyways, here's why I'm full-time on Strava now.

The UX of Strava is terrible and there's zero running statistics that are free. Adidas running is my favorite it's UX is clean and there are many rewards when you run and participate in events

Yeah, my 5km pr according to mammyrun was around 25 minutes, but my first official 5k race was 19 minutes, then i compared map my run results to strava, 5km in strava = 4km in map my run for me

I use both NRC and Strava simultaneously when I run, and times are so different. Up to 10% difference which is quite a lot. Not sure which is more accurate but it feels like NRC is.

your uptempo training runs posted to Strava have graced this channel with an AIR of authority. Glad to have found you there and appreciate the support 🙏 Your race PR’s don’t seem to match the ferocity in which you train - in awe of the times / paces you post. I put you at a sub 02:45:xx marathon 01:16:xx half

I loved MapMyRun for a long time but recently I had timing and distance issues where It would say I completed a 10k but my Garmin AND Strava would say I was at 9.4K. Also with COVID pushing all the races to do on our own, it was just easier to submit my times through Strava since most races will automatically take it.

Can you link all your old runs from mapmyrun to strata ? I have been using mmr from 09 and would like to take all my workouts over to strava, all my friends use strava and I'd like to get it all transferred over! Cheers

I also dropped MapMyRun for strava. I recently got a Garmin watch and honestly I like it way better. With just the clock of two buttons my run is already being recorded and I can just open the Garmin up so it can upload it to strava

Awesome. I did the same just this week. I was using NRC to track. Strava is weird though, times seem off some times. I track with the Workout app and then sync to strava but definitely some weird correction is taking place on the strava side.

[Mysterygamer]

Surely GPS is the phone not the app, the app uses the phones GPS .

[teddyjordan]

Are you able to sync your workouts from your watch into your mobile app?

I read that Strava overestimates calories.

map my run stinks for real time pacing
