Treadmill Mileage Inaccuracy

Former Member over 5 years ago

I am new to the Garmin community and I am still trying to get the hang of tracking my activities with my Garmin forerunner. On the treadmill it doesn’t seem to track my mileage the same as my former Fitbit and the treadmill counts it. It doesn’t seem to account for a faster pace. Is there something that I can do to adjust the setting to have more accuracy?

I have this issue as well. I didn’t realize the first time the watch asked me to ‘calibrate’ that if I didn’t do it then I wouldn’t be able to change it later... on other runs. Today it was off by 1/2 a mile.....(ran 2 miles)

Should I delete my runs and maybe I can calibrate it once old data is off the watch? Thanks!
