Pace incorrect?

[FilipVDR]

Hello all,

Yesterday i ran 30km in 2h37min13sec. Fitbit says my pace was 5,14.

But when you calculate 157/30 i get 5,24? Am i missing something?

Thanks in advance.

It's nice to see you around the Community @FilipVDR, welcome! 

Fitbit trackers calculate distance by multiplying your walking steps by your walking stride length and multiplying your running steps by your running stride length. By default, we calculate your stride length using your height and gender.

If your distance measurement seems inaccurate, follow the steps below to calculate your stride length and then add it to your Fitbit account:

1. Go to a track or some place where you're sure of the distance.
2. Count your steps as you walk across that distance, making sure you travel at least 20 steps.
3. Divide the total distance (in feet) taken by the number of steps to get your stride length.

Your running stride can be calculated the same way if you run instead of walk.

To adjust your stride lengths using the Fitbit app, go to Account and find the Stride Length setting.

To adjust your stride lengths using the fitbit.com dashboard, click the gear icon in the top right and go to Settings > Personal Info. The stride length fields are in the Body Info section.

The changes take effect after you sync your tracker.

Hope this helps!
