# Strava MCP connector vs a read-write fitness MCP server

Strava shipped an official MCP connector on 1 June 2026: a remote server with OAuth, for subscribers, that lets an assistant read your Strava training data. It is read-only. A read-write fitness MCP server, like this one, lets the assistant also log entries and meals, set goals and plan days, across disciplines Strava does not record, such as sleep, food and gut health. Many people will want both: Strava for activities, this for the plan and the log.

| | Strava's MCP connector | revns |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Reads activities recorded on Strava | Yes | Not yet (Strava sync is on the roadmap) |
| Writes data (log, plan, goals) | No, read-only | Yes, with a separate write permission |
| Disciplines | What Strava records: runs, rides, swims and more | Any metric you define, plus sleep, meals, gut health |
| Goal pace and a weekly plan | Not part of the connector | Yes |
| Price | Strava subscribers | Free core |

**Where it is the better choice:** Strava's data is recorded automatically by your devices and has years of history for many athletes. If your questions are about past runs and rides, its connector is the natural source.
