Frosty Posted January 9, 2016 Share Woke up this morning to find I left my Garmin on after the previous workout, so only 7% left. Panic, I did not. Ideal opportunity to test the Strava app as I knew our planned route was 104km. Got home, ended the ride and waited. Within the hour my 3000 points had been allocated under the heading "120 + mins vigorous device workout". Considering it was only distance based without any HR activity, I'm satisfied a contingency plan is available and works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dgas Posted January 9, 2016 Share They posted the attached on their twitter feed... Jan looks pretty good - 3 races I'm already entered are 50% back. dhv_team_vitality_january_combo_calendar.pdf I have entered the Fast One in January. Will Discovery automatically deposit the 50% back for the race entry in my account? Do they pick it up from the entry list or do I have to let them know that I have entered and send proof? They do pick up our food purchases from Woolworths and refund, my wife uses a Woolworths card which is linked to Vitality. I paid my entry fee using a Nedbank credit card.

When you have finished the event and have an official time, then claim your points for the race via the website under outdoor sport events. Right under where you joined team vitality is says... what you need to know! It is not automatic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure Savage Posted January 11, 2016 Share I'm here... Just saying. I know, but telling her would be like running over a bag full of kittens and baby bunnies, then reversing over it. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgarblount Posted January 11, 2016 Share yip the 3000 is for 2h+ of vigorous exerciseOn that note... Can't seem to find the definition for vigorous vs moderate device workout. Saw something last week but can't find it now. Something about vigorous is at least 75% or more of max HR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something about vigorous is at least 75% or more of max HR? Avg 70% of HRR for the exercise, I think. Could be wrong. It's also above 8kph for riding and 4kph for running, from what I've seen. That's hardy vigorous, but for most of the folks they're trying to coax into the healthy living side of things, it is... edgarblount 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
