comment: batch update
Because Stryd is compatible with so many watches, it's fairly easy to get most of the data into an app for analysis.
* '''Pace and Distance'''. If you have your watch set to take a distance from the Stryd, you'll naturally have access to distance in pretty much any application you can get your data into. Because you have accurate distance, you should have accurate pace to analyze as well.
* '''Running Power'''. There's some analysis in the Stryd web site, but most users will want to export the data into another application. Getting power into such an application for analysis will depend on which watch you are using and how you got it configured. ** If you're using an Ambit 2/3 with native power support, you get power in the exported FIT files normally. ** For the Polar V800 there doesn't seem to be support for exporting the power in the TCX file. Hopefully they'll fix that soon.** If you're pretending this is a cycling power meter, then everything should work just as it would for cycling power, but of course it looks like a cycling workout. ** If you're using the Garmin [[Connect IQ]] data field, then you'll need to have an application that supports importing customer data. I found that Golden Cheetah worked fine, as does SportTracks with the Custom Data Tracks plugin and the Garmin FIT plugin. ** If you're getting power as Cadence, then most applications should be able to handle that, but obviously you'll have it in the cadence field and it will be 10x lower (210w will be 21 steps/minute.)
* '''Cadence'''. Cadence is well supported by pretty much any analysis application, unless of course, your using the cadence field for power. Note that the Garmin [[Connect IQ]] data field will record the cadence value from the Footpod in addition to any other Cadence device.
* '''Elevation. '''I've found it tough to get elevation data into an analysis application. I'll update you if I find a good way of doing this.
