Can TR automatically upload runs

[DCurtis]

I use my Garmin watch when I ride outdoor, which automatically uploads to Strava and to TR when my ride is complete. I love it because it keeps track of miles, TSS and everything else. I am now running more but when I use my watch in run mode, it doesn’t upload to TR. Any chance that can be fixed? Anyone else have that problem? I would love to track my overall weekly tss including my runs through TR. Right now the only way I can do that is by manually going in and adding a scheduled run. I know that’s not a lot of work, but it’s not very convenient. I use a Garmin 935. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! @Jonathan @Nate_Pearson

No, there is not upload function for Runs or Swims at this time. There is an open Feature Request (I can link later when I have more time), and the TR crew acknowledged this is on their overall to-do list, but not active at this time (because other priorities are ahead of that implementation).

Manual is the main way to get them in the TR system right now.

I had a cheat workaround I used a bit once upon a time. I will try to find that link too.

Anyway to import running activities from Garmin or Strava into TrainerRoad?

Loving the new Calendar, and want to really use it but about half or more of my training activities are not done on TrainerRoad. What is the best way to add these activities into the calendar? Is the best option to manually type them all in after the workout?

Run and Swim Workout Sync Upload to Calendar

Love the new calendar. I think it needs to be updated so that my run and swim workouts from garmin, are uploaded to calendar just like TR does with outside bikerides. That way its easier to compare planned run/swim workouts with real ones, and also have the option to substitute or “assign” a real workout instead of a planned one. It can also have a more precise TSS calculation based on the real data of the garmin activity.

My odd work around, that is not really a good idea, probably:

Anyway to import running activities from Garmin or Strava into TrainerRoad?

I did a hack before the the Calendar. So I don’t know if it still works, but seems likely. Running… OK, I did a thing… and I want to see if I am crazy or on to a functional workaround. I have been adding some run training to prepare for a duathlon in a few weeks. I do most of my runs on my treadmill, in Zwift. These runs upload to my Strava and Training Peaks accounts, but of course… not TrainerRoad. So… I decided to try a test. I downloaded the run workout from Training Peaks and then …

Thanks for the info! I guess I should have done a search on this topic first. I didn’t know it was discussed already. That’s a bummer but at least I know it’s not possible at this point. I don’t mind inputting manually. It’s just a pain and not very accurate.
