  • I'm in a daft situation where my short runs are measured by time rather than distance.

    Have Vitality health insurance through work which gives reward points for activity, but minimum duration is 30 mins. I've sometimes run 5k and walked the remaining time as cooldown, but that kinda screws up the Strava data which is obviously unacceptable.

  • ..set up a second strava account and use that with a cheap / used watch just for the health insurance?

  • 30 minute activity, let it upload to insurer, then crop strava activity?

    Seems arbitrary and short sighted. Getting the inactive active won't work with minimum duration, could even work more as a disincentive.

    I used to have that. I got points for doing parkrun, and for buying healthy things at Sainsbury's (linked to the Nectar card). The fresh fruit I got loads of points for was for my wife and daughter, can't stand the stuff myself.

    Eventually got enough points for 50% off a new Garmin, which was nice.
