MECHANICS: Add run/treadmill support
-
Erling Worm commented
As a running coach using TP inreally dint care about biking. Adding running support will be a gamechanger though.

I’ve been a dedicated user since the early days when the platform was known as Indivelo, and I’ve been actively using Zwift since 2016. The launch of running support was a game-changer for me—it’s been my go-to app ever since to stay active and healthy.
I'm not an athlete in the competitive sense; I simply value movement and well-being, and Zwift has been a crucial part of that journey.I also really appreciate the insights that TrainingPeaks offers and find the data incredibly helpful. I’ve been seriously considering becoming a premium member. However, having to toggle between multiple apps just to access everything I need feels cumbersome.
The one feature that keeps me committed to Zwift is the seamless integration with my treadmill (Wahoo Kickr Run), which makes staying active more accessible and enjoyable.With that in mind, I’m genuinely excited about what’s ahead—and I’d love to know: are there any plans to add Running support to TPVirtual in the near future? I’d be thrilled to join the app and program if that feature becomes available!

For supported devices, the KICKR RUN treadmill with incline support and another vote for Stryd metrics too. I use different apps for biking/running so this would help for the switch.

Yes please! Its the only reason I have to use Zwift today. And please dont make the Zwift mistake to have the pace in min/k(mi) in the smallest possible font size. Make it big and readable!

As soon as TPV can connect to my Treadmill (Tunturi T90 - FTMS Protocol) I'll switch to TP. Actually I'm on Wahoo SYSTMX and unhappy with the missing treadmill support. Zwift supports my treadmill but is very expensive and i don't like the look and feel. So TPV with treadmill would be a big game changer!

I would also appreciate having support for following structured runs (planned in Trainingpeaks) on the treadmill, which would make a big difference compared to Zwift, where you can only follow Zwifts workouts, but the workouts from TP don't get synched. Obviously erg mode won't be working for all treadmills, but seeing which zones you should hit for how long would be a big help!

Please add support for Tunturi T90 Treadmill. It uses the FTMS-Protocol, so it should be quite easy!

I use Zwift because it has an option for running, if TPVirtual had running - then id get rid of Zwift and only use TPVirtual.

I'd appreciate the ability to run in TPV. I recently purchased a treadmill and I've been considering going back to Zwift for it's running support. Seeing this listed as a planned feature is really exciting though. I use the North Pole Engineering Runn sensor on my treadmill paired with my Garmin watch currently.

Suggestion for TrainingPeaks Virtual:
It would be great if TrainingPeaks Virtual could support treadmill running, not just cycling. Currently, when my athletes do a treadmill interval session with Garmin, recalibrating only adjusts the average pace, which means the individual interval data remains inaccurate. Additionally, some treadmills don’t reliably connect to Garmin or other devices, which means I often don’t get data like elevation.As a result, not only is the interval data skewed, but Training Stress Score (TSS) can be underreported, making it harder to accurately track training load. If treadmill data could sync directly to TrainingPeaks via Virtual, and workout details were incorporated properly, it would make treadmill running far more meaningful for tracking and monitoring progress.

Running is what got me to Zwift. If we’d like to be cutting edge here, where Zwift falls short is the ability see info from foot pods like Stryd; I’d like to think there commercial upside if began with that end in mind. Plus taking a non-connected treadmill using Runn, and creating something amazing is exciting.

Skyler_Sopp I see nothing anywhere that says running is planned by TrainingPeaks for TrainingPeaks Virtual. Where do you see that?
-
Skyler Sopp commented
Running is already a recommendation and is already planned 👍🏻

I like the TPVirtual...
but in my opinion the “running” function needs to be integrated. At least 15 of my athletes would use TPVirtual if it had this feature. -
Jolanda Bucher commented
Only feature that keeps me on Zwift...

Eric Robinson commented
I would love a running side to the app like zwift and mywhoosh. not sure how hard that is but as a Triathlete it is really nice to have visuals well running on my treadmill.

Phill Berry commented
I would absolutely love to see this prioritised, and also have the ability for TPV to control the incline via FTMS, this will give you a huge advantage over Zwift as they are ignoring the users feedback on this subject.

Tom Geentjens commented
Would be the only way to go to go to TP Virtual and leave zwift behind. As a coach, I know that all my athletes feel the same way !

Rick C commented
Expand the virtual app to cover running and integrate with treadmills like the Wahoo Kickr Run for incline/decline controls, speeds, etc.

Can you add just some basic run routes soon so we can all ditch zwift completely? Doesn't need to be all sing and dancing from day one....
