So until recently I've never had an issue with distance or GPS.. and after some trial and error over the last few runs this is what's occurring.

  • if I start the run via the app the voice cues will tell me when I've reached my 10k and it'll say 10k at the top but the little map it displays 7.5k. 
  • Next run I started from my watch this time I get the reverse I ran over 6k and my blaze and app insist its only 4k (it's definitely not!)

Updated my phone, app is up to date, calibrated my GPS. I just can't get the accuracy I want. Using a Samsung galaxy 9+ if it makes a difference.

I am having the exact same problem which started about 4 weeks ago now . Apparently i'm a lot less fitter over the last 4 weeks . Makes me feel what's the point.
