So the past couple of days my run, which is the same every time, which is 5k is only coming up at 4.23k also not showing the map that I ran. All I'm getting is a blue screen. Is anyone else getting this, if so what's gone wrong and how can I fix it. I do virtual races and need my correct mileage for evidence!

All devices with GPS sensors require a direct path to GPS satellites to calculate location. A weak GPS signal might affect the accuracy of your route and other activity data. Your device uses your step count to calculate distance until it finds a signal, so the total distance calculated for a workout may be slightly less accurate when GPS isn't available for the entire time. I recommend checking out this article with information about the different factors that can affect connected GPS.
I also suggest doing the following:
Let me know how it goes, I'll be around.
