Notes

  • Strava is a possible silo
  • You need not pull the data from Strava if you are not tracking your data with there app
  • Strava is a nice 'hub' to get data to your site, as it has many integrations.
  • from where does Strava get the data? is it collected directly by the app or by running gear and then syndicated (oauth) to Strava by garmin/...

PESOS from Strava has advantages. E.g β€’ It can process your GPX data

  • but you can't get the GPX get out of it
  • Strava can track your shoes or gear
    • Strava does not let you create shoes via the API, only view them
    • Strava does not let you edit shoes via the mobile app, only on the desktop website


Goals?

  • first goal: use Strava embed (don't own the content at first)
  • then own the data and store it (to reprocess later)
    • PESOS?

Can our own websites be the proxy-in-the-middle between a sports watch app and Strava?

sports watch -> sports watch app -> oauth into your personal site -> oauth into Strava

  • he seems to mark them up with some h-measure, but not much more

Brainstorming

IndieWeb Runners Club that aggregates run posts across IndieWeb sites and shows them in aggregate like Strava Groups
