## Key takeaways

- Strava announced on October 28, 2026 that subscribers can connect Strava to Gemini, starting in the US.
- The connection is optional and read-only, and Gemini cannot upload, edit or delete activities.
- A paid Strava subscription is required, and it works on all Gemini plans.

Strava subscribers in the US can now connect their accounts to Gemini and ask questions about their own training. [Strava announced the integration](https://press.strava.com/articles/strava-now-integrated-as-a-connected-app-in-google-gemini-enabling-users-to-get-more-personalized-training-insights) on October 28, 2026. The Gemini Strava integration is read-only and works on all Gemini plans.

Strava data is the kind that rewards questions in plain language, so a chat assistant is a natural fit.

## What you can ask Gemini about your Strava data

Once connected, Gemini answers from your activity history instead of general advice. Strava's examples include "Am I getting faster at the same heart rate?", a mile-by-mile breakdown of your last race, and "How is my strength training impacting my running?" It can also compare your fastest 10K this year with your all-time best, estimate how much the heat slowed a long run, and report your longest running streak.

According to Strava's help center, Gemini reads your live Strava data each time you ask. That covers activity history, fitness trends, cross-sport insights, gear, best efforts, activity weather and streaks. Gemini cannot upload, edit or delete activities.

## How to connect Strava to Gemini

Strava's [help center](https://support.strava.com/en-us/articles/15401531-how-do-i-connect-strava-to-an-ai-assistant) gives these steps, as of October 30, 2026:

1. Open Gemini and select Customize in the sidebar (choose More first if you don't see it).
2. Select Connectors, find Strava and select Add.
3. Sign in to Strava and approve access.

On the mobile app, tap Inactive if Strava isn't listed. Strava's announcement describes the same setup through Personal Intelligence in Gemini, under connected apps.

## Availability, subscription and limits

- Region: the US only at launch, according to Strava. Other countries are planned, with no dates given.
- Strava plan: a paid subscription is required. That includes the standard plan, the Strava + Runna bundle, and the Family, Student and Military/Educator/Medical discount plans.
- Gemini plan: all Gemini plans.
- Limits: Strava caps requests per minute and per day, and says Gemini's answers may differ from what the Strava app shows, such as Performance Predictions.

## Disconnecting

The connection is optional and can be removed at any time. In Gemini, go to Customize, then Connectors, open the More options menu next to Strava and select Disconnect. You can also revoke access on Strava.com under Settings, My Apps, or in the Strava app under You, Settings, AI Assistants.

## What we don't know yet

Strava's announcement doesn't name a date for other countries or give a price beyond the subscription requirement. We also didn't find an entry for the integration in Google's Gemini release notes when we checked on October 30. The details here come from Strava.
