Request: Rowing Metrics - pace and stroke rate

Gathering feedback

To measure pace rowers routinely use time taken (in minutes:seconds) to cover 500 metres, either as an instantaneously metric, average over the current split (lap), or average over the whole workout. Could this be added as a source option when designing a dashboard please? Essentially it would be half the value of the per km pace as preferred for running. I realise that this sounds odd to non-rowers, but /500m pace really is everyday language for rowers.


Also, dedicated rowing apps sense the stroke rate via the accelerometer (which is used to detect the surge in speed with each individual stroke). It would be fantastic if this was added a source option for the dashboard too. Rowers measure current stroke rate, current split (lap) average and average over the whole workout.


Thank you!
