Hi everyone,

I've had my Fitbit Inspire 2 for a good year now. I have been using Nike Run Club to track my runs and my pace religiously. I have noticed that on every single run, I press the play button to track the Run on my fitbit and on the NRC app on my phone simultaneously. The Nike Run app always shows my average pace being a full minute slower than what the fitbit records. 

 

Is anyone else experiencing this huge difference in average running paces? Which one is more accurate, the fitbit or the NRC app?

Are the distance and time, recorded as the same between the two? 

Does the app feature an auto pause when stopped.

I’m having the same issue, but in the other direction. I just started using NRC, but I’ve been using Fitbit for a few years. NRC tracks me as a minute faster than Fitbit. When I checked the distance on my last run, though, Fitbit says I ran 2.79 miles, whereas NRC says I ran 3.11 miles. It seems the issue is one of distance tracking. Not sure what the solution is, though.
