Also on side note how short a session would people count as a session? Currently doing 11.5miles each way (average 50mins) for commute, between which on feet the whole time.

Oranj Feb 2018 9:22pm, 26 Feb 2018 813 posts	Quote Pin Oranj For my personal training diary I have a threshold of 10km continuous cycling before I log it (I wouldn't include 5km into town, and then 5km home later, for instance). However, because of Conquercise and Fetchpoint I log pretty much everything here, including trips to the supermarket, pub, cinema, etc. Most of my cycling is still "training" though, I logged 7370km, but including all those little trips on Fetch, 8465km.

Personally, i'll log anything over a mile - why not? i have a mate who, when he was in the fire service, had a rule with the others that bike commuting wasn't 'proper' training. but i commuted over 6000 miles in the last 2 years and there's no way that it didn't benefit me, so i'm counting it!
