Hello Megan,
You get xp when completing the interval block during a workout, not per mile or km. It works differently, but you arent being “punished” for doing a workout.
I would be cautious about awarding XP, or anything, for getting jerseys in game. As soon as you introduce an award people will cheat to obtain it (we see this all the time) and game the system.
I 100% agree about the event only routes, they should all be available.
I agree with this, however the good news is that most of the event-only routes added in the last couple years have come with badges, so it has improved. I’m not sure why some event-only routes remain event-only for years, and others do not.
I think all of the recent ones have. Any new ones would also be, however, we generally make them available after a period of time and slowly add in the older ones with some new programmes (TDZ is generally a good example).
a lot of the time in a workout, I go over or also under and get zero for that interval, especially when it is 5 times 2 minutes full speed / 2 minutes crawl speed. 20 minutes later, zero points. (because I either went too hard on a ‘crawl/rest’ or I overshot the last hard interval)
