This is repository is currently in maintenance mode and being re-written to a separate Rails API back-end with React Front-end, due to the increasing popularity and greater userbase.

Strafforts is a web app that calls Strava API to fetch athletes' running best efforts, personal bests and races and visualize them in forms of data tables, line charts, pie charts etc., in such way athletes can perform some analysis like half marathon PB progression, fastest shoes used for a 10K race, how often 5K PB gets set, etc.
Originally developed as a personal open source Ruby console app just for fun, Strafforts has now been rewritten in Ruby on Rails, so that athletes can connect Strafforts with their Strava accounts and see visualized best efforts automatically.
Quoting from Strava Support:
Estimated Best Efforts are automatically calculated using your GPS-based running activity, and reflect your fastest times for benchmark distances such as 1 mile, 5km, 10km, and half marathon. Strava can find your best effort at any point in each running activity. We do not require that a best effort starts at a mile split.
Quoting from Strava Support:
Strava offers four different sub-categories within the Running activity type to allow for more detailed and focused analysis of your training. Those four tags are Run, Race, Long Run, and Workout.
See Acknowledgements page for a comprehensive list.
As I'm actually a .NET developer by day, Strafforts is my first Ruby on Rails app that helps me learning the framework and creates something useful for analyze my running. Since it's so amateur, surely there are so much can be improved from a Ruby developer's point view. I will try my best to improve this and make it more useful for everyone.
Got any questions? Check out the FAQ in the app first to see if it's been asked before. If you have any feature idea, or are running into problems, please raise an issue on GitHub. If you want to make code changes, feel free to create PRs. Development guide can be found here if needed.
