Hello everyone,
I’d like to share an idea that could make Garmin Connect even more engaging for runners: Discovery Points.
How It Works
- Every time a user runs a new route, they earn Discovery Points.
- These points contribute to ranks, fostering a fun and competitive experience.
- A personalized user map would track all the routes a runner has completed, allowing them to see their progress over time.
Benefits
Motivation to explore – Encourages runners to try new routes and break out of their routine. Stronger community engagement – Leaderboards and rankings could add a competitive edge. Better training insights – A personal heatmap of completed routes helps users analyze where they’ve run and identify areas still to explore. Old and new route - It helps runners plan and diversify their training
What do you think? Would you find this useful?
Looking forward to your thoughts!
