My failed post above should have shown about a dozen segments where I am close (0-10 seconds) to the fastest of the mob I follow and about a dozen segments where I am close to the slowest. Green segments are fast ones and red segments are slow ones. There are another dozen where I am somewhere in between.
The original thought behind this post was to work out what would improve my riding fitness most, increasing the green segments or reducing the red segments.
Looking at the actual segments, most of my reds are climbs and most of my greens are swoopy descents with most the rest being flat or mixed roots where my lack of fitness slows me back down.
Without getting hung up on Strava it has proved useful for rehabilitating myself and seeing the results. On 8/8/13 the total time for all my segements was 67:11, last week it was 66:29 and now it is 66:18. I want to get it below the 60 minute before the trails get too wet and slow.
Only ever racing myself but beating other sometimes is a consequence. 😉
