Think of Strava as turning any form of outdoor exercise into a multiplayer game.
The whole concept is basically that each training session (for me, cycling, running) ends up as an automatic (editable) diary post with all your stats from the session, a nice map of where you went and what contested “segments” you traversed. You can then compare what you did to how well you did five years ago or how your buddy from the cycling club did.
From a privacy perspective Strava is egregious (plenty of people have been killed based on the data users make PUBLIC). And for things like daily walks it makes zero sense (IMO).
