When I go for a run and start the run on my app on my phone why do I get 2 separate items listed....eg today I had 2 runs logged.  Both show the same distance but one showed an average pace of 20 minutes per km the other one showed 7 minutes per km. I was not wearing my charge 3 on my wrist.

I don't understand how you got any results if you were not wearing the tracker.  Perhaps the one started on your phone would get some results, but I don't see any reason to start a  run from the app if not wearing tracker, and would not be surprised at strange results from either.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

If I wear and start the exercise on the tracker and I carry my phone and start the run on that too, I end up with 2 recordings.  I understand that completely. But even then the two records will have ususlly have different pace times and distances.  I don't always wear the tracker because very often the display is too dark to see but the phone will still record the distance and pace.
