dizzyfeet on "Missing run graphs"

dizzyfeet — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 05:24:24 +0000

Can anyone suggest why a run that is uploaded via iPhone to Nike might appear here on slowgeek without a graph? I'm administering a challenge and have bumped into two such runs in the last three weeks. The first was a 5 mile walk/run that took several hours to complete (multiple pauses one assumes) and the second was a significant run of over 50 km. Thanks for the any assistance you can offer.

MissHoptimist on "Run description missing"

MissHoptimist — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 05:11:43 +0000

Hi, I did a run on the 25th that I didn't get to tag until the 28th and now it seems that my run description won't synch to this site. I can read it in the raw XML data, and I have tried refreshing my runs, but the run description still doesn't show. How can I fix this?

One of my runs posted twice. Is there a way to remove the duplicate?

Yannoukos on "Why do I only see my last 10 runs?"

Yannoukos — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 04:58:10 +0000

Excuse my ignorance but I am completely new here.

I have taken all the steps to register and create my page and I can only see my last 10 runs there. In the summary section it says I have 119 runs. Am I doing something wrong?

Could someone help please?

Thanks
Yannis

Quadra94 on "Double session"

Quadra94 — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 21:01:12 +0000

I have a double session in my slowgeek page on Aug 26, 2011(http://slowgeek.com/pr/282582395). I checked on nikerunning site but they refer to the same and unique run. Can any admin cancel one of them ? Thanks

m_c_meyer on "Comparing splits over the multiple runs?"

m_c_meyer — Thu, 11 Aug 2011 07:59:22 +0000

Is there any way to compare every first mile against every other first mile I've run? Or every 2nd mile against every 2nd mile, etc...? I tend to start quickly and then continually slow as my runs get longer, so I'm curious to see what the trend(what my avg 1st split, 2nd, etc..) is and how to pace myself better over the course of a run.

djmatsolo on "Convert runs Nike+ to Garmin"

djmatsolo — Fri, 12 Nov 2010 14:10:07 +0000

I have about 2800 miles uploaded to Nike+ and just purchased the Garmin 310XT. Is there a way to upload all my nike+ runs into the Garmin site? Thanks.

teutate on "get running data from other sites/apps"

teutate — Thu, 25 Aug 2011 02:43:28 +0000

hi,
I've finally decided to migrate from nike+ gps to another iphone app.
I'm absolutely not regretting leaving the nike+ website which is real hell for linux users!
Nonetheless I'm already missing the simpleness of the layout and amount of data I can visualize on slowgeek.

So, I'm not sure if slowgeek has a database of it's own or if it every time downloads fresh data from the nike website...
is it possible to get the data from other sites (dailymile, runningfree, runkeeper)? or to have iphone apps directly upload data to slowgeek?

thank you

Quadra94 on "Shoe Tracker precision"

Quadra94 — Sat, 20 Aug 2011 22:05:17 +0000

The only shoe tracker I use from some years is the slowgeek one.
Is it possible to be more precise for the 1st run ?
Here is my situation : I was running 20 km on Aug 10th at 10:35 and also 20 km on Aug 11th at 08:42. I wore my new shoes on this last session. But if I select my 1st run as Aug 11th, this last run isn't included. If I select it as Aug 10th, the shoe tracker estimates 20km more than in reality.
Thanks rlerdorf or other admins for considering this

sailnjay on "Running Cadence"

sailnjay — Thu, 30 Dec 2010 08:19:47 +0000

Is there anyway to show running cadence (steps per minute) from the raw data generated by a Sportband?

Thanks for everything you've done on the website.

freap24 on "Nike + GPS Tag"

freap24 — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 09:04:46 +0000

How do you get it to stop accepting Tag games? These games slow my phone down so much. i have waited 10 minutes for the app to finish downloading or what ever it is doing before i could set up my run. any hints?

TIA
Dylan

ATJ777 on "Thanks Slowgeek"

ATJ777 — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 21:40:55 +0000

I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU. The Nike+ graphs are pretty useless but the Slowgeek graphs are actually useful. I wonder if Nike ever talked to any runners for their input.

rugauger on "Feature request - multiple shoes"

rugauger — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 09:37:01 +0000

It would be great to be able to track multiple shoes - I use two pairs (one older, one newer).

cshamis on "Feature request: A better calibration?"

cshamis — Wed, 29 Jun 2011 15:11:19 +0000

Okay, so no matter how many times I calibrate my old 2G Nano, it's almost always off by 5%. Not the end of the world, but annoying. Since I know my route distance (i've run it with a real GPS) and I aways dial in my exact "custom" distance before every run, would it be very much trouble for slowgeek to just /display/ what my pace actually was based on the run distance I input, and the time of the workout? Assuming I didn't run over...

Yes, I know I can do this arithmetic myself, but this seems like the very kind of dull monotonous task computers are particularly gifted at.

mattgk on "Multiple duplicate runs on slowgeek"

mattgk — Tue, 09 Nov 2010 11:22:20 +0000

I've noticed several duplicate runs showing up in Slowgeek, but not on the Nike site. The data look identical when I view on this site.

Some of the problem dates:

02 Nov 2010
30 Oct 2010
28 Oct 2010
27 Oct 2010
26 Oct 2010
25 Oct 2010
19 Oct 2010
18 Oct 2010
14 Oct 2010
12 Oct 2010
30 Sep 2010
29 Sep 2010
23 Sep 2010
22 Sep 2010
19 Sep 2010
15 Sep 2010
06 Sep 2010
29 Aug 2010

I think these may have started with iOS 4.1 with the abiltiy to upload directly from the device.

Bottom line is my numbers for September and October are way off on here, and November's already had a miss.

Any clue as to why this happens?

Jovisaru on "Runs from different location."

Jovisaru — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 05:46:08 +0000

Let me know please what are de correct steps to have my graph with the right location when my run is not in the usual city.

Should I change Location at my Slowgeek profile BEFORE I upload my workout on itunes?

I've noticed that when i do this change, several of my past run graphs automatically change their location too....

EJD84 on "Goals & Coach"

EJD84 — Mon, 04 Apr 2011 06:24:12 +0000

So I'm new to Nike+ and slowgeek. I LOVE this site. I am wondering if there is a way to set goals/coaches or import them from Nike's website?

SteveTrotterUK on "Duplicate Tweets"

SteveTrotterUK — Sat, 05 Mar 2011 04:47:36 +0000

Not quite sure what's happening but my last run keeps being tweeted every few hours. When I delete it from my tweet feed slowgeek posts it again within minutes.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

kmcgator on "Can't get detailed .xml data into Excel"

kmcgator — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 16:15:17 +0000

I was able to easily export the summary level .csv data into Excel, but when I attempt to bring in the detailed .xml data (with all the split info, etc) into Excel I get a message that says "the specified xml source does not refer to a schema. Excel will create a schema based on the XML source data". This creates an .xml source tree on the right side of the Excel workbook with titles that look like what I am looking for, but it doesn't allow me to map any of those elements into the worksheet (when I try to drag and drop them, they don't appear on the worksheet).. can you walk me from the point where it brings up the .xml data in my browser to how I get it into Excel. I am a proficient Excel user, so I should be able to figure this out, but can't get it to work for some reason..

Thanks!

Kevin

Wingfoot67 on "download xml data for all runs."

Wingfoot67 — Mon, 07 Feb 2011 11:55:48 +0000

I know that there is a button to download the xml code for each run individually, but is it possible to download the xml data for all runs in one batch?

robynanne on "Can't get my challenges"

robynanne — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 10:06:37 +0000

Hi there.

I even tried firefox but I can't seem to get my challenges to upload. I can get the file from nike+ and save it on my desktop in XML, but when I browse to it and say upload, there is still nothing. I can see my challenges on the xml file so I know they are there. I must be doing something wrong when I try to upload it.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

teutate on "modify Nike+ GPS sqlite db"

teutate — Fri, 21 Jan 2011 07:25:46 +0000

I have no expertise with dbases and sqlite but i guess it's possible to modify the iphone's nike+ GPS database (ZWORKOUT in merged_model.sqlite, located in the Documents dir within the nike+ GPS folder) to add some runs that were not recorder by the app and then sync them with the nike+ site...

Has anyone already understood how to convert the data to insert in:
ZDATE?
ZAVERAGESPEED?

and what are:
ZRECORDINGID?
Z_ENT?
Z_OPT?
ZSERVICEID?
ZATTABOYTYPE?

Also, if I add the missing run in this table will it sync with the site?

thanx

ps. thank you so much for this wonderful site!!!
