Outdoor runs and rides
How do you upload outdoor runs and ride to wahoo systm?

Everything about Wahoo Systm and outdoor rides is described here https://support.wahoofitness.com/hc/en-us/articles/7671514838674-Wahoo-SYSTM-Outdoor-Structured-Workouts

If you want to import your outdoor rides/runs into Wahoo Systm calendar to log your training diary I am afraid it is not possible. For training log functionality you should use something else like TrainingPeaks, Today’s Plan, Strava or similar applications.

Edit: I moved the post from Systm Content to Systm Software section as it relates to software features itself rather than its existing content.

@karim_ouaddane Right now the only possible way is to record the ride or run on a Wahoo device (Element Roam, Bolt or the Rival) or use the Wahoo Fitness App or the Wahoo Element Companion App.

I read somewhere that the long term plan is to be an open platform - allowing recording on other devices to be loaded to the calendar - but for now it is just Wahoo specific devices and software.

As @rdo notes it is not possible to import prior activities and lots of other athletes use other apps in addition to SYSTM to track training.

I don’t import outdoor rides into SYSTM, I dual record them.

I always ride with my phone and outdoors also with a Garmin head unit. Since my power meter, speed sensor and Heart Rate monitors all have Bluetooth and ANT+, I record the ride using ANT+ on my Garmin and I use my SYSTM Bluetooth on the phone to record using a long no-vid endurance ride, which I will never use indoors because there isn’t enough chamois cream in the world for 3 hours on the non-rocking trainer…

This also works indoors if you are using a simulator app like FulGaz.

@CraigM excellent idea I will try that.
