How to use weather on your activities

Every run gets its weather, and your coach uses it. A grim headwind explains a “slow” day better than any chart.

Step by step

1. You don't need to do anything. When a session arrives, the app adds the conditions (temperature, rain and wind) from where and when you trained.
2. Open the session and look at the weather tile.
3. Conditions look wrong? Tap the tile and correct them.
4. Your coach reads the weather in every analysis. “Cool 11.8°C with light rain and a southeasterly” is part of how it judges the session.
5. On the home screen, tap the Weather & location tile to open the full weather page.
6. Tap the place name there to set your home location, or to follow your location automatically.
7. Going away? Set a trip: pick a place and a number of days. The app uses it while you're away, then switches back by itself.
8. Session titles pick up the town name too, so “Morning Run – Richmond” is easy to find.

Try this

Where it goes wrong

• No weather on a session. Usually the session had no usable location, such as a treadmill, indoor ride or GPS off. The app then uses your default location from Settings, so set one. Indoor sessions honestly have no outdoor weather. That's not broken.
• Wrong town or conditions. Tap the weather tile and correct it. Your correction sticks, and your coach uses it.
• Getting home weather while travelling. That's what trip mode is for. It switches back by itself, so you can't forget.
• Weather missing after a reinstall. Your default location is stored on your phone. After a reinstall, open the weather page once and set it again.

Check it worked

• Your latest outdoor session shows a weather tile.
• The town and conditions look right.
