When you go out for a run or bike ride, you probably have preferred routes you follow often. Whether you follow the path around your local park or prefer to stick to the streets in your neighborhood, it's easy and convenient to get into a routine.
However, if you use Strava to track your activity, you might be interested to know that the app allows you to create new routes to suit your workout preferences.
Using Strava's Route Builder, you can build cycling or running routes that cater to a certain set of criteria, like routes with less elevation or routes that are popular with other Strava users. If you want to use the feature and build your own routes, here's how to do it.
