Personal best running

Status: Under Consideration Submitted by on ‎02-22-2017 22:02

Would love Fitbit to show personal bests e.g fastest mile, 5km, 10km half marathon etc..like most of the really good running apps.  I know a lot of my running friends end up choosing the garmin for this very reason.  I think sales of Fitbit will increase with this new feature. Please consider it.  Thanks Sarah

Yes I agree I was actually looking at getting a Garmin for this reason just yesterday... most running apps actually have this feature with FitBit I have to look back over all my runs or write down when I get what I think is a PB... this is something that needs to be done sooner rather than later as I believe not having this feature will hold you back. I could download Strava or another running app and use this feature and just have a normal fashionable watch instead ...

Fitbit are missing a massive part of training states we should be able to see. 
The badges we get are pointless. I’d like to know my best 1k, 5k, 10k etc.

Again, sad to hear personal best pace has been discussed for years, and is yet to be a feature... assuming for none of FB's products. I'm on the market for an upgrade, but may have to sadly switch over to a new product. As an earlier comment suggested, it'd be best to be able to filter a time frame and search for the personal best in that specified time frame, or even just export it and decide myself based on my physical state. Thanks!

In general it takes more than these few vote sc to get the attention of the develooers. With millions of fitbit users, do we really only have 300 that would like this option? 

This thread has become a conversation between Fitbit users, with not many comments explaining why this is needed.
