Records
Best efforts by distance and duration, compared across seasons.
Records shows your best efforts for one sport at a time, the one you practise most by default. Runs and rides never share a curve.
Each kind of record has its own chart and table:
| Record | Read along | Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Pace (running, walking...) or speed (cycling...) | distance, from 400 m to 100 km | the sport's pace or speed unit |
| Heart rate | duration, from 5 s to 2 h | bpm, best average |
| Power | duration, from 5 s to 2 h | watts, best average |
| Elevation gain | distance | metres climbed |
The table gives the date of each record and the activity it comes from: select it to open the activity. The chart and the table compare all time with the current season and the previous one (calendar years).
How records are computed
Records come from the recorded stream of each activity, whatever the source: connected devices or imported FIT, GPX and TCX files.
- Distance records need a GPS route. Each stretch ends exactly at the target distance, so they do not depend on how often the device recorded a point. Stops stay in the elapsed time: they make a stretch slower, never faster.
- Duration records weigh each sample by the time it covers. A gap of more than 15 seconds between two samples counts as zero, so a dropout cannot hold a high value. Indoor sessions without GPS get power and heart rate records too.
A longer distance can occasionally show a faster pace than a shorter one: when a stop splits a run, every short stretch may include it while the full distance spreads it out.
When the computation improves, the records of existing activities are recomputed in the background after the update: they can take a few minutes to settle on a large history.
