STRAVA

Strava is great and we work with it — we let Strava do what it does best and we just add the missing piece: structured training intelligence that turns your data into a plan that actually fits your life.

how it works
01
Open the bot on Telegram Search @runwhisperer_bot or tap the button above. Send /start — the bot introduces itself and asks you to connect Strava.
02
Connect Strava in one tap The bot sends a secure link. Tap it, approve read-only access, and your activity history syncs automatically — takes about 30 seconds.
03
Run /onboarding The coach reads your full Strava history, asks a few questions about your goal race, current fitness, and any niggles, then sets your HR zones and builds a personalised training plan.
04
Get coached every day Each morning, /today shows your session and whether your body is ready for it. After each run, ask for feedback — pace, zones, effort — and the coach analyses it against your plan.
05
Chat in plain English Report a niggle, ask to rearrange the week around a work trip, or just ask "how many km did I run this year?" — the coach understands context and remembers everything.
