Strands Fitness Importer

December 19th, 2011

We are continuing to add to the growing list of sites compatible with the RunPartner importer.  Our newest addition is fitness.strands.com.

Fitness Strands has recently posted “The Strands Fitness training log will be shutting down on December 30, 2011. It has been a very fun and exciting last three years and we wish you continued success out on the roads and trails.”

For all those Strands Fitness users without a home:  We invite you to try out RunPartner!

Account creation and data import should take less then 10 minutes.  You should see many familiar features as well as a few new ones on RunPartner.  We also welcome you to make connections with the many runners already using RunPartner.com

The importer will allow you bring:

  • All activities
  • All routes (name, notes, distance, points)
  • All shoes
  • Account info
  • User profile info
Note: The RunPartner Fitness Strands Importer brings in much more than the Exporter offered on the Strands site, and you don’t even have to open Excel!

Is my information backed up?

Over the last decade  some websites have suffered catastrophic data loss and have been forced to close.  To protect the longevity of your logs and data, RunPartner makes a backup of everything several times a day and then compresses and encrypts it before sending it to three backup datacenters across the country.  If that’s still not enough, you can use the AutoBackup feature to have your data emailed to you quarterly for safe keeping!

Can I get my data out?

Unlike the draconian policies of Facebook and other activity tracking sites, which prevent the export of user data, at RunPartner you can always pack up your information and head West.  Simply use our Export feature to get all your logging goodness in a nicely packed file.  You can then open and explore it in Microsoft Excel.
