The problem it solves

You don't want to manually copy every run or ride into a spreadsheet after the fact. Activities pile up and your training log falls out of date.

Who it fits

Athletes, coaches, or personal trainers who want an always-current workout log.

How it works

  1. Runs automatically on a schedule
  2. Checks Strava for your latest activities
  3. Compares them against what's already logged
  4. Adds any missing activities to Google Sheets
What you get

Workouts that appear in your log without typing

You get every new Strava activity added automatically to your Google Sheets workout log.

What you get

An up-to-date spreadsheet log of every workout with date, distance, time, and elevation.

What you need

A Strava account and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
