Unable to Sync Treadmill Exercise on Strava

[Haz11]

Hi, 

Yesterday I did a 30 min treadmill workout which has been logged successfully on fitbit, but it is not showing on Strava. Any idea why?  I am sure fitbit can transfer Treadmill workout data in the same way it does for Runs & Walks?

Any advice appreciated, 

Thanks.

As I understand it, Fitbit activities will not sync to Strava unless there is GPS data included.  If you're specifically recording exercise on the "Treadmill" setting, the GPS won't turn on to record data because it's an indoor activity.

Thanks very much . Makes sense

This is noted as 'solved'. I don't think this is a solution rather its an explanation of why something doesn't work. It would be nice to have a work around idea to address this short coming. That would be a solution.

Manually enter your treadmill run on Strava. And ask Strava to change what workouts they pull--this is a Strava issue, not a Fitbit issue.

Agreed. Thank you.
