Strava: Run, Bike, Hike

What Strava Does

Strava: Run, Bike, Hike records outdoor activities and turns them into a long-term training history. It is built for runners, cyclists, hikers and other active users who want route data, performance tracking and a social layer in the same app. Strava Inc. publishes the app in the Health & Fitness category.

Tracking Across Activities

The app supports more than 40 activity types, including running, cycling, hiking and yoga. It can bring activity records together from services and devices such as Garmin, Apple Watch, Fitbit and Peloton, which is useful if your equipment changes over time. Your completed sessions can be reviewed alongside earlier efforts instead of being split across separate platforms.

Competition and Safety

Strava adds structure for people who enjoy measurable goals. Segments let you compare times on particular stretches with your own previous results and with other athletes, while leaderboards provide another way to follow progress. For outdoor sessions, Beacon can share your live location with selected contacts, giving friends or family a way to follow a solo run or ride.

That combination of broad activity support, connected-device compatibility and community competition makes Strava a fit for both casual movers and dedicated athletes. Users who mainly want a private stopwatch may find its social and comparison features less central, but those features are useful when motivation comes from visible progress and shared activity.
