Took a 2 mile walk today. Surge says it was .41 miles. Map shows correct route but distance off. Says I was walking an 81min/mile pace. Please explain?

@Mdlibb Welcome to the Fitbit Community! That is strange. I will recommend to try the route again, but first, perform a restart on your tracker. This will fix any inaccuracies. Also, adjusting your stride length is a great way to have accurate distance recorded. Check this post about GPS accuracy.

 

Let me know how it goes! Smiley Happy
