In a groundbreaking move to cater to the vast number of Aussies who get the majority of their cardio in on Friday nights, Strava has proudly announced the launch of its latest feature: “Walking Home Pissed From the Pub.”
The innovative addition to the popular fitness app is set to revolutionize the way people track their post-drinking journeys home.
Strava, known for its promotion of a healthy lifestyle and showing your friends how much healthier you are compared to them, has finally acknowledged the fact that many of peoples steps are being made up from late night walks home. The new feature promises to accurately log the staggering steps, back tracks, and even stops to ask random people if they have a ciggie to spare, and a lighter.
“We’ve always believed in promoting all forms of physical activity,”
Said Strava spokesperson, Ben Wu (33).
“And let’s face it, not everyone is into marathons or triathlons. Some of us just want to get a good workout while enjoying a pint or two. Walking home pissed from the pub is an Australian past time after all”
Local pub enthusiast and avid walker, Jason Brodie (26), expressed his excitement.
“Finally, my nightly trek home on Friday can out-compete my boring mates that go running the next morning”
