Strava's got a new feature: the Events tabThe Events tab can help users find races using its database of events imported from RunnaIt can also help find group activities and communitiesStrava's leaning back into the 'social network' aspect of its app by taking more steps to help its massive community of athletes get connected. The app has launched a new Events tab, available as a sub-tab within Groups, designed to surface local group activities — and make use of the massive library of running events posted regularly on its sibling app Runna. In a statement, Strava says its new Events tab 'surfaces upcoming events — group runs, rides, and races — tailored to an athlete’s activity and location, making it easier to find ways to move and connect with others'.The key aspect there is using the athlete's activity and location. While you don't have to be a Londoner to enter the London Marathon, there might be races, group rides, and other activities in your local area you didn't know about. Using your location and activity data, Strava could surface relevant activities and groups you may be interested in. As many of these events will be drawn from the Runna app's library of races — Runna is now, of course, owned by Strava — we expect many of the early recommendations to be focused on runners. But Strava specifically mentions you can filter events by sport, and highlights Group Rides as an example. So if you prefer cycling to running, you won't be left out of the loop. The available filters include distance, date, location, sport, elevation, and temperature, so you can do a fair bit of tinkering to find a local event suited to your needs. Thankfully, the Events tab is available for both Free and Premium users. If you're an event leader looking to get your event in front of more people, Strava has also updated its Club Organizer Hub, branding it 'a rebuilt home for club leaders'.
