Under my username on my profile I have discovered that I'm labelled as a Recovery Runner. I have never been a runner. Presumably this will influence what exercise and cardio load Fitbit wants me to do. I find this inaccurate description very annoying.

@grebe42   That’s your Community Rank and is based on your Community participation.  Your rank will change based on the number of posts, votes given, votes received, best answers, etc.

Fitbit began as a pedometer.  All of the Community Ranks are step based names.  Once upon a time I was a serious distance runner.  But never an ultramarathon racer.
