I run or walk the same 6 mile track. Run mode appears to calculate the same mileage as my previous versas. The walk mode is much slower on my versa 4. It’s the same mileage as I run but walk mode is about 0.2 miles less per mile. Any thoughts?

Hi @Cbalog - is that with or without GPS enabled?

Same thing I was wondering.  And which GPS option.  I avoid any distance question with a 10 foot pole that does not give more information because so much more information is required to give a meaningful answer.  It usually would take several back-and-forth questions to get enough information, and find out if using auto-recognize or exercise app or waiting for GPS to connect, and by then original poster would have generally moved on, wanting instant answer.  Maybe not this person, maybe just difference between walking and running stride length, but just my distance Q vent.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
