Open a blank Power BI file and import data from the Excel file called Running Data 2023.xlsx from the folder above.
Add a text box titled Running Stats, showing the following data highlights.
Click +Value on the textbox toolbar to add the blue underlined values.
Add a table visual showing the Quarter from the Date column with the Sum of Time in Mins.
You can clearly see the good intentions at the the start of the year!
Add a column chart with Month on the X-axis and Sum of Distance KM on the Y-axis.
Make sure no visuals are selected and add a smart narrative visual.
You may be given a choice between Copilot (preview) and Custom. Choose Custom.
Power BI will attempt to offer insights for the visuals on the page.
Try selecting various data points from the 3 visuals to see the insights change.
Here I selected the value 844 for Qtr 2 in the table.
Save the file as Insightful.pbix
