Allowing a zero duration value is an intended design choice to provide flexibility in data entry. For instance, an activity entry might sometimes be used to log an exercise session that didn't involve actual running, such as stretching or warm-up exercises or popular gym workouts, where distance and time is not always applicable. Some might use a 0-second duration to mark brief moments of activity that don't significantly contribute to their overall workout time like tracking the completion of 30 pushups.

The current version of our software (with no specific features for stationary gym workouts) with this flexibility therefore allows the user to use the software in different ways.

Rejection of zero inputs would rather annoy users who want to track a gym workout but not increase the distance counter. Therefore this is not in scope.
