We’ve created numerous Strava segments for Zwift Runners and labelled them Zwift Insider verified. We verify the start and end points of these segments with our automated Zwift bot.
Strava limits the number of segments we can create each day, so this list will continue to grow over time. See the changelog at the bottom of the page for updates.
Note: we recommend starring our Strava segments, for your own good and the good of the community. While Strava does not currently let you manually hide run segments, starring segments while not starring others will “train” Strava to show the most useful segments to others automatically.

Is there something wrong with my milestone pod? I ran the hilly course last week, but it didn’t seem like zwift took the course elevation into account at all. I just ran about the same speeds no matter what. And the strava file afterwards read 0 elevation…
Elevation isn’t used in Zwift Run. So your speed in game is just based on whatever pace you’re running at. This is why you’ll often see runners passing riders on the climbs!
So when will they fix it? 🙂
Nothing to fix, as far as ZwiftHQ is concerned. Because they can’t control the incline of your treadmill, it doesn’t make sense to make your in-game speed be based on elevation either.
Some runners change their treadmill to match the in-game incline, but I think that’s a very small minority.
I hope you realize that speed is affected by elevation in Zwift cycling, even without a smart trainer. When I ride only with my power meter, elevation affects the speed.. So that would be great for running as well.
