Strava is a popular app and service for tracking athletes' activity using mobile devices (smartphones, GPS, fitness trackers, heart rate monitors, bike sensors, etc.). The app lets you analyze workouts, compare them with others, set goals, share your achievements, compete with other users, upload photos and videos linked to maps and workouts, analyze your physical activity, and create personal heatmaps. Strava thus functions as a social network where athletes connect, send likes, discuss workouts, create clubs, and organize competitions. The app is especially popular with cyclists, runners, and hikers.
