Realised I can get strava on phone to shout out 1km splits. First two did shit me up as I'd immediately forgotten I'd set it on so didn't hear the split properly. 3rd was welcome pace news as I could hear it and it wasn't terrible then the 4th and 5th took an eternity to be broadcast. Useful feature, might piss nearby folks off in races though? No worse than garmin beeps?
Lots of people use it here and it really annoys me on trail races, then again I spend most of trail races being (both rationally and irrationally) angry... Etiquette in China is very different to elsewhere and unfortunately people's consideration for the environment/people around them leaves much to be desired. Maybe I'd find it less annoying if it wasn't in the countryside/so loud/a lengthy update in robotic chinese.

I hate it too, but rely on it so much for pacing but #NotARacer. I generally head out around 6:30am, saw 2 dog walkers this morning and both times Strava blurted out just as I went past. I do feel terrible when that happens.

I guess a gaggle of them slightly out of sync going off in succession would be very annoying.

122 miles here including 2 x 5k tt's 15 days apart, the second of which was over 1 min quicker than the first.
