I would like to know if the user of a footpod is running or not. Is this part of the ANT+ profile that I can't find?

Thanks

No, this isn't included in the device profile at the moment. There is a flag in the status field that differentiates between active / inactive. You could differentiate based on speed / cadence, but it would be tricky to get the split right for all users.

Perhaps get the user to enter their typical walking and running speeds?

Thanks Kat. If the sensor manufacturers had already done this in a smart way I didn't want to hack something in - but we can make this work for our needs without being handed the result for free.
