Treadmill Workouts All Labeled as Run in Strava

[PugMamma]

Since January 6th all my treadmill workouts are being labeled as a "run" in Strava. I did 3 walks on January 5th and were all labeled correctly as a Walk. Small issue since I can correct the workout type in Strava manually, but unsure what caused the change overnight.

Walks Labeled Correctly in Strava: debug-Thu_Jan_5_10_49_22_2023.log

Tread Bootcamp and Walk Labeled as Run in Strava: debug-Fri_Jan_6_12_22_15_2023.log debug-Fri_Jan_6_13_30_25_2023.log

@PugMamma thanks! Checked and it's due to new peloton api. Now they are mark these activies as

"fitness_discipline": "circuit", "fitness_discipline_display_name": "Tread Bootcamp",

so how can I treat this? In the fit file I can put as a Multisport activity if you want. Otherwise i will have to add a new setting for "bootcamp strava activity".

What do you think?

Not sure what will be easier, but prior to the Peloton update Treadmill Bootcamps were labeled as 'workout' in Strava. This worked out well since there are running and walking bootcamps. What are walks labeled as in the January 6th debug log?

@PugMamma the one from the 5th is

"fitness_discipline":"walking"

hah so from the 5th was not walking on strava, but workout instead?

[cagnulein]

also do you have the fit files @PugMamma ?

From the 6th and 7th, Walks were labeled as Runs.

[cagnulein]

ok but in the 5th was marked with Walk or with workout? also do you have the fit files?

[PugMamma]

also do you have the fit files @PugMamma ? The file from Jan 4 was a Tread Bootcamp that went imported in Strava is labeled as a workout. The file from Jan 5 was a walk that was labeled as a walk in Strava. The files from Jan 6 & 7 are 2 walks and a Tread Bootcamp which were all labeled as run in Strava. Fit Files.zip

ok checked the fit files, i was wrong. The fit files are perfect, showing generic workout for bootcamp and walking for walking one on 7th jan. so it's a bug of strava. can you open a ticket to them? let me know!

I got a response from Strava support. Strava said the sport is labeled as generic. "Since the file didn't include any information on the sport type it will default to your account's "Default Sport" which is Running." I sent them the below FIT files as well. Fit Files.zip

[cagnulein]

yes the generic one was the bootcamp, isn't it?

[PugMamma]

Correct. I asked him what the more recent walk file said for sport type, but his reply didn't answer it. Since I can't view the FIT file on my laptop I couldn't verify on my own. I'm unsure what the sport type for bootcamps was prior to January 5th since those FIT files would be labeled as 'workout' previously vs 'running'.

[cagnulein]

one thing i can tell you for sure: i didn't change anything, so they have changed something for sure. Anyway I'm open to changes if I can help you somehow. Maybe changing the bootcamp workout type?

Does the walk FIT file has the sport type as generic as well? It's not that big of a deal to change it manually in Strava.

[cagnulein]

the 6th one is walking the 7th one is generic

[PugMamma]

the 6th one is walking the 7th one is generic

I'll contact Strava again. I think sending both FIT files for a bootcamp and a Walk was too confusing for them.

[cagnulein]

ehehe ok let me know

[PugMamma]

ehehe ok let me know

[cagnulein]

is this answer about which file? @PugMamma

[PugMamma]

is this answer about which file? @PugMamma

That was from a walk file. I can attach it if you want

[cagnulein]

yes to double check it and in case also if you have the debug log from the same session

the fit file is a walking one but I understood now what they mean!

They changed the behaviour: they're not getting the sport from the fit file directly but they are using the meta information that i'm sending with the fit file. Since day 1 on qz, if you were using a treadmill i was send this bit like running, bike like riding and so on. So i have to modify also this now. Good to know! I will do this today!

note for me, use: stravaPelotonWorkoutType

for reference, I guess they are talking about this

activity_type: | string optional, case insensitive.Possible values : "AlpineSki", "BackcountrySki", "Canoeing", "Crossfit", "EBikeRide", "Elliptical", "Golf", "GravelRide", "Handcycle", "Hike", "IceSkate", "InlineSkate", "Kayaking", "Kitesurf", "NordicSki", "Ride", "RockClimbing", "RollerSki", "Rowing", "Run", "Sail", "Skateboard", "Snowboard", "Snowshoe", "Soccer", "StairStepper", "StandUpPaddling", "Surfing", "Swim", "Velomobile", "VirtualRide", "VirtualRun", "Walk", "WeightTraining", "Wheelchair", "Windsurf", "Workout", "Yoga" Deprecated: prefer using sport_type, will be ignored if sport_type is included. Overrides type detected from file, if left unspecified type detected from file will be used. -- | --
