Incorrect 5k time calculated from the run

I ran a 5k yesterday and clocked it under 30 mins. But I completed the run around 5 seconds after 30 mins. Why is Garmin showing a new record of 5k at 30:05. It's so bad as my efforts seems to be not registered correctly. I was also shown the same on my watch after completing the run workout.

Also to add the AVG pace show is 5:57 which shows that 5k was achieved within 30 minutes but the record shows incorrectly.

It seems that if you do an activity very close to the distance it will use the full activity time for the record. Not sure if it is intentional.

Just manually adjust the time of the personal record: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/personal-records

I've also had this when completing a 5k on the final run of a Connect training programme.
