Here is some exciting news for some of you. Others will wonder what on earth these things are…
Garmin is excited to announce API partnerships today with leading fitness applications Strava, MapMyFitness (including MapMyRun and MapMyRide) and Endomondo. The partnerships allow Garmin Connect™ users to seamlessly view their data in these third-party applications. Garmin is continuing to work on partnerships with additional third-party training applications.
When logged into Strava, MapMyFitness and/or Endomondo users can opt to link their Garmin Connect account to automatically sync. Once the accounts are linked, users’ activities are viewable on the third-party platforms immediately after they are uploaded via Garmin Express, Garmin Connect Mobile™ or WiFi. Users can currently link with a Strava account; availability for MapMyFitness and Endomondo will be coming soon.

My favourite kit and nutrition
- Maurten — the race nutrition trusted by elite athletes. Gels and drink mix engineered to be easy on the stomach.
- Garmin 90-degree charging adapter — the small adapter that keeps your charging cable tidy at the stem. Essential for race day.
- Garmin charging puck — the fastest and most reliable way to top up your Garmin before a session.
- Ravemen FR300 — front light that mounts directly under your Garmin or Wahoo head unit. Keeps your bars clean and your beam pointed where it matters.
- Garmin Varia RTL515 — radar rear light that alerts you to vehicles approaching from behind. Pairs with your Edge or Garmin watch.
- Stryd — the footpod that brings running power to your Garmin. The single most useful running upgrade I have made.
- Favero Assioma Pro RS2 — the power meter pedals most serious cyclists end up choosing. Accurate, easy to move between bikes.
