Max Speed error

Every once in a while I'll get a top speed from my downloaded data that is incredibly high. For example: I spent five hours on mountain trails Friday at an average speed of about 6 miles an hour. Max speed reported was 82 mph! :eek:Should have been somewhere around 28 mph. Same thing for yesterday. Max speed reported at over 60 mph. It's kind of pissing me off!:confused:

Smarko
  • I mailed them as well and received the following reply:

    We are now aware of the low best pace issue in Garmin Connect. This appears to be an issue with the update to Garmin Connect and our engineers will work to resolve the problem in a timely manner. Unfortunately we do not have an estimated time for completion but this should be resolved in the near future.

    I had asked them due to also some other problems with the forum.

    I notice however that not all new running workouts show a wrong pace. Might be device-dependent or so.

    go to history on the 705 and your max speed is on the summary. manually edit the entry.

    hopefully garmin will fix it soon

    My 410 is doing this too, but it was fine last Wednesday.

    I know that I can edit it manually but I shouldn't have to.

    fastest pace is :03 ...?

    Hello,

    The last several runs that I have had show my fastest pace for each split (1mile) as being 3,4, or 5 seconds. Every split will have this, including overall fastest pace. However this extreme speed does NOT show up in the "player" mode, it is showing the normal paces. None of the other data is affected or altered by this rogue speed.

    Can't think of anything unusual or out of the ordinary that has happened with my watch, besides using it.

    I am using version 2.40.

    Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated

    I came here to find the answer to this question too. Best pace is displayed on my Garmin as normal but when I upload it to Garmin Connect it shows as 0:03 or 0:02. It's only been happening for the last few days.
    Hope someone can help.
  • I'm getting this in all my rides lately, except I'm seeing speeds of over 4000 miles per hour. I'm using the GPS + the wheel speed sensor.

    On wednesday Garmin post the following on their Facebook page:

    Hi all - we're hearing reports of some extremely high max speeds posted on recent activities. While many of you are undoubtedly getting faster, we've learned of a bug in there that's creating the anomalies (like superhuman fast). Our dev team is working as quickly as possible (almost superhuman fast) and we'll keep you all posted. If you have specific questions - or other issues uploading - don't hesitate to email us at [email][email protected][/email]. Thanks!!


    i hope this explain your problem @OHFUGIT

    Also seeing spikes but it just seems to be a mis place of decimal in max speed.... ie 3193km/h instead of 31.93 Km/h
