On 9 November 1989 the Berlin Wall fell. Tomorrow marks the 30th anniversary of that historic event. Cyclist Gary Corderey rode across the once-divided city to create this image of the famous Bruderkuss graffiti painting. Kudos!

Unbelievable.
Thank you @EliudKipchoge for showing us what is possible.
If it isn’t already obvious how freaking fast 1:59:40 is, it takes most runners almost twice as long as Eliud to finish a marathon!
Wow! Congratulations to @paulmissinglink who broke the record for summiting all 214 of Alfred Wainwright’s Lake District 🇬🇧peaks.
⏱️ 6 days, 6 hrs & 5 mins
🏃 326 miles
⛰️ The equivalent of 4 times up Everest
🗺️ One amazing Strava map!

🚨 NEW WORLD RECORD! 🚨
@walmsleyruns set a new 50-mile world record of 4:50:07 during a 100k (62.1 mile) race. That's an average pace of 5:48 per mile! 😱
Give the man some kudos 👉 strava.app.link/Im9lbusDrW
A huge kudos to @KeiraDAmato on her new American Record in the marathon 😱🤯
Known on Strava for her puns and, now… for recording the fastest women's marathon on the app ever!
Send her achievement some kudos (and check out her jokes): strava.com/activities/653365…
From all of us at Strava: happy holidays! 🎅
We hope you’re all able to spend time with family, enjoy some good food and maybe fit in an activity! (Note: 100+ mile bike ride not necessary, but extra kudos for your pedal-powered Père Noël @anthoyte)
Serious kudos to @Running_theRift who traced out this message on Rhossili beach. Ellie wanted to show her appreciation to the British National Health Service after her life was saved by a liver transplant. bit.ly/2tlSV4T

Garmin’s outage is preventing Garmin activities from syncing automatically, and connections with Strava Routes, Live Segments and Beacon are unavailable as well. We’ll update you after we learn more, and until then, here are some workarounds 1/4
Strava aquires @fatmap, adding 3D mapping to our list of features to help motivate active people to explore and discover the outdoors: strava.app.link/e/OdtDuv0DQw…
Well now it’s official…!
Give @NNRunningTeam athlete @joshuacheptege1 kudos on his 5000 m world record of 12:35:36. Incredible. Congratulations, Joshua! bit.ly/3hvRuFH
Sometimes a setback can be a chance to get outside with a different goal and have some fun! The Paris city streets don’t make Strava art easy but @marinlle01 is becoming a master at it.
👉 strava.app.link/marine-leleu…#stravaart
Congratulations to @des_linden on 6th place, 1st American and an incredibly gritty performance at the 2019 @nycmarathon. We'll let her off for the fact her watch stopping skills weren't quite as smooth as her splits! 😉
Kudos! bit.ly/36EKNMa
A year ago yesterday a bomb killed 22 people in Manchester. Finishing at the Manchester Arena, Nathan Rae ran this heart-shaped route to honor those who lost their lives. bit.ly/2GIPtmf

In 24 hours, @Kilianj climbed over 23,486 meters on his skis. While it might be a new World Record, he says his focus was on testing himself. We'd say he passed 🎓 Kudos, Kilian: strava.app.link/rtsdmNfeeU
This cyclist is the first person to ever complete an 'Everesting' attempt on the road up to Mt. Everest Base Camp (all above 5,000 meters 😲). Give him Kudos 👉 strava.com/activities/175975…
Crazy but amazing - kudos to @Susie__Chan on running more than 100 miles around the Tooting track in torrential rain. Somehow she managed to keep smiling the whole way!

Not one, but two major updates are hitting the Strava app next week! Check back here on June 2 to see what they are and in the meantime – drop your guesses for what they’ll be in the replies 👇

Not even a pandemic could hold Strava athletes back. We covered 10.6 billion miles in 2020 (that’s 1.2 million miles per hour), find out how many of them were yours. See your personal totals for this wild year – available now, only in the Strava app. #YearInSport
Huge kudos to all the fans at Dutch Corner. After three days of tough mountain climbs you gave the riders the reception they deserved and the support they needed. And orange isn’t a bad color either… #GiveKudos

The running world lost a legend today. Roger Bannister was the first man to run a sub 4 minute mile. He dared to chase the impossible, proving that limits are so often just a state of mind. Like @mariofraioli, can you run today to honor his memory? bit.ly/2thtzVB
WOW! 70-year old Gene Dykes ran 2 hours 54 minutes and 23 seconds to set a new 70-74 age-group marathon world record. Simply incredible.
Give Gene some kudos: strava.app.link/jacksonville…

On Saturday, June 24th, the 2023 iteration of the Western States Endurance Run (@wser) kicks off. We’re stoked to be an official sponsor of the world’s oldest 100-mile trail race and we’ll be bringing you updates throughout the day!
We compared last year’s @nycmarathon to 2022, and the high of 74° (compared to last year’s 55°) led to some late-race carnage for athletes.
TL;DR, this year’s race was hard, and if you PRed: you deserve some extra kudos 👏
TOUT 🧡 BIEN

@transconrace. She's the first woman to ever win this grueling slog across Europe and she did it in style! She rode 15 - 18 hours a day including an epic 295-mile day. What an athlete. #TCRNo7strava.app.link/agpf9H5EVY

We're not surprised someone flagged @lawsoncraddock's 29.8 mph activity from stage 17 of the Vuelta, that ride was 🔥
(Don't worry Lawson, we'll take care of that flag.)
