Hello,
I went running today with my sporty pal with the goal to get under an 8 min/mile. At mile 1 SportyPal told me the elapsed time was 8 min 20 sec, at mile 2 it told me total time elapsed was 17 min. 25 seconds and at mile 3 it told me I was at 25 min 45 seconds. The mile four marker was never announced.
When I finished my run the SportyPal screen read that I had run a total distance of 4.10 miles with the the total time elapsed for my run being 31 minutes 28 seconds. I am certain I did not run the last 1.10 mile in under 7 minutes.
Anybody know why the disconnect between the mile marker readings at total time run? Is the GPS not that specific? Is it some kind of estimate?
Thank you,
Jason
