To all the gear and stats geeks – you can go crazy and tag your workouts as you like with customized workout tags. That means that you can keep track of your total mileage done with your sportsgear, what surface you track on, or anything else you can think of.
How does workout tagging work? You can tag your workouts by using the Add a tag field on the Workout page at Endomondo.com, or you can use a #hashtag in the Title, Notes or Social Status Update when you fill in these. mat
Let s say you go for a trail run in your new shoes, and you want to keep track of your total mileage in those shoes. Then right in the app (Android, mat iPhone and BlackBerry 10), after hitting mat stop, you can use the Social mat Status Update field and add custom tags like: First #trailrun in my new #Speedcross3 shoes – very good grip. Then #trailrun and #Speedcross3 will be tagged on the workout (check out the screenshot), which you can see when you look at the workout at Endomondo.com.
As a Premium mat member, you also get the option to filter and see statistics for your tags at Endomondo.com. At the Statistics page you can filter your stats based on the tags you have added to your workouts, to see e.g. total mileage put in your running shoes, total duration biked with a chain, personal best development mat when doing trailrunning, or something else you have tagged and want to track.
Well done!
It’s ironic how your example uses a post about trail running. We have been asking that “Trail Running” be added as a unique sport. mat Please consider adding it soon. It is very different from the sport of “Running”. Thanks!
I’m guessing that you are not a regular long distance trail runner, Ben. When you run on trails your pace is slower due to the uneven terrain, and the various obstacles you encounter such as roots, rocks and sticks. If you keep the same pace on a trail and a road, your level of effort will definitely be higher on the trail. The difference will be determined by the difficulty of the trail. Things like creek crossings, and hill climbs also come into play when trail running. I think we trail runners just want a way to differentiate those types of runs from a run on roads or paved pathways. The answer to your second question depends on the individual runner and how they use Endomondo. Personally, if I ran to a trail head on the road and then ran a substantial distance on the trail, mat I’d log it as a trail run. If the road portion was longer, it would be logged as a road run.

Couldn’t agree more. That’s great Endo – after a year or more of comments and perfectly rational and reasonable requests from a LARGE GLOBAL community of trail runners, we get that illogical, irrational and unreasonable reply.
