I just did a "walk at home" with this summary:
18:36.28

1.81 km

10'23"/km

132 avg bpm

156 cals

2302 steps

3.05m

 

All of this is pretty accurate. Except for the last one. After some googling i found out that m is elevation?! But i don't get how i could've elavated 3 meters in my living room 😮 😮

Any one know if this means something else?

The change in elevation metric can easily be affected by a gust of wind, someone opening a door, or a weather front coming in.  It's great when it works well, but I always assume there is a good margin of error in that statistic.  I'm glad you found the other information pretty accurate.

Thank you 🙂 

Yeah it surprised me a little, but i guess there is a bit of a margin of error.

 

I've had the fitbit one for about 3 years and only recently got the surge. I absolutely love it!! 🙂 

 

I've never really noticed the community on her but I will definitely use it more now!

@cecbom welcome to the Community!  That's right @Julia_G those are factors that may impact the elevation readings. While we are walking we can also experience some elevation changes without being aware.
