Elevation

The altitude from your GPS tracks, drawn as layered profiles from front to back like a range seen across a valley. Hilly runs stand tall, the flat ones run along the bottom, and the whole thing reads as a skyline of your year. Connect Strava, pick the tracks with altitude in them, and it is on the page in a minute.

What it reads from your data

A elevation profile print, from your own activities

A profile per activity, layered with the highest at the back.
Recorded altitude, so a mountain day dwarfs the park run.
A title and the totals: climb, activities, distance.
Palette and colour of your own for the profiles and the words.

Every part of the print can be moved, resized, recoloured or removed in the Studio; the route, the map and the words each take a colour of their own. Nothing is printed until you order.

Good to know

Which activities work?

Any outdoor activity with altitude recorded: most watches and phones record it. Indoor and manual activities have no profile and are left out.

Does it show the route on a map?

No. This style is altitude only; the Marathon Print shows the route with the elevation strip beneath it.

Is the vertical scale exaggerated?

Yes, as on every elevation chart; the Studio scales it to the print and keeps every profile on the same scale.

How it works

From the Studio to your wall in three steps.

Step 01

Choose your subject

Connect Strava in one tap for a race, a ride or a whole year. Or search for a place, type a postcode for your street on the old Ordnance Survey, or add a photograph — none of those needs an account.

Step 02

Choose your style

Start from a finished design and make it yours: the words, the colours, the size. Twenty-three styles for your own miles, four treatments for a place, six layouts for a photograph, and the old survey as drawn or in your colours.
