I Finally Got Positive Results Following My Strava AI Agent

If you read my [previous post], I talked about a Strava Agent I developed using **BeeAI, [AgentStack](https://agentstack.beeai.dev/stable/introduction/welcome)**, and custom tools to fetch data directly from Strava. My goal was to gain deeper insights into my training and learn more from the data I’ve been collecting for years.

Well, a few weeks have passed, and I decided to put both the agent and myself to the test. I followed the training plan it recommended for the last two weeks of January. My goal is to run a 5k in under 21 minutes. For a long time, I hit a wall at the 22-minute mark; I just couldn’t seem to get below it.

The Experiment

I committed to the agent’s plan, though not 100% ((Because I really like doing functional training and CrossFit)). It wasn’t an overly demanding schedule, but it was structured. I’m not a pro runner — just an enthusiast — so experimenting with AI advice carries some risk, but I felt physically confident enough to try it.

The Results: 1 Minute Faster

The results were surprising. In the screenshot below, I asked my agent to compare a similar training session from January 18 against my latest run on February 1.

Honest truth? I didn’t expect such a massive difference.

• Pace: Improved by 5.4% (from 4:46 min/km to 4:31 min/km).
• Heart Rate: Remained stable (actually dropped slightly from 176 bpm to 174 bpm) despite running significantly faster.
• The Milestone: While I ran 7km in these sessions (I always feel like doing a bit more), focusing on the 5k mark, I went from 22:41 down to 21:46. That’s nearly a full minute shaved off!

What’s Next?

I know the agent still needs many more skills added, but seeing these tangible results motivates me to make it even more capable.

If you want to try it out, the prototype code is available on GitHub. Please leave a ⭐ Star on the repository if you like it, and follow me on Strava if you want to see if my AI Agent continues to help me improve my performance.
