My Ionic is off a 1/4 mile per mile when I run on treadmill.  Any suggestions?

There is no way for the watch to know the distance on the treadmill without using external sensor like foot POD. There is workaround. Log exercise manually after finishing tracking. Use start, duration and calories from previously tracked activity. Use distance from the treadmill machine. Save activity and delete previously tracked one.
