• You have set an incorrect activity type on Strava. For #EverestingforSecondChances, our system will only recognize cycling activities. You should select either "Ride" or "Virtual Ride".
• Your activity may have been flagged and removed. Our team reserves the right to moderate and remove such rides if they are proven to be invalid or have breached our campaign rules.
• Your activity may have overlapped with another activity. Our system is built to automatically detect overlapping activities (by time). It automatically removes one of the overlapping rides and retains the activity with the highest amount of elevation recorded.
