OMG Strava

I'm new to Strava. Just learning my way around. It's a social tracking device for runners and cyclists. Kinda weird. But anyway, you can click on someone and see what they've been up to, how fast they're running, and such. You can see my running achievements of the week in the little box to the right. If you click on it I think you can see my cycling achievements as well. And just when you think you've had an awesome run, Strava let's you know that someone else has run that same route faster than you. It's pretty neat. I like things like that that make my workouts a little more fun.

Anyway, so a buddy of mine recently decided to "follow" me. I guess like you would on Twitter or Blog, except I've never "followed" a blog and I don't have Twitter. You're welcome by the way. I got an email that said congratulations, so and so has decided to follow you on Strava. "Nice!"

Thought that was kind of funny. So I "followed" him back. I also decided to find one of the girls from the cycling club and "follow" her. My cycling club has it's own little Strava group, and you can go find other club members on it. So I found her and requested to follow her. See, I guess since my friend is on my facebook list of friends, he can follow me without asking permission. But since this girl is not on my facebook, I need permission to stalk..I mean follow..her.

I just got an email from Strava.
"Hey Carrie,
Whoa, you're kind of a big deal! C** is now following you on Strava. Click to follow C** back. Let's show her what you can do.
Go get 'em.
-Your friends at Strava.

Nice. I'm being followed by two people and now I'm a big deal!
