Easy way to show only personal records on Strava Segments?

I sometimes run and a segment comes up with a time that's far faster than what I can do.

Instead of encouraging me, I just ignore it as it's way to fast.

I would much better compete against the best instance of my run on that segment...

Is that possible at scale? ( I know you can change it on a segment by segment approach, but it's not a great experience)

Thanks!

Yes you can, but it's a bit convoluted and not well documented.

Open the Run profile
Button up to enter the sub-options menu
Select Training
Select Strava Live Segments
Turn off Auto Effort
Select any segment & you can select PR as your target (or Next person you're following or the CR). Each segment I checked had my PR set as my target

Thanks for that. It works as you suggested!

I wish it had a more straightforward UX but it's good to have. Thanks!

The settings are in an odd place. I would expect them to be at the Run/Bike Activity Setting level.
