My is told that it is better to put the final point a short distance before the starting point.

Using "Walk Indoor" as activity seems to work better, as long as my walking speed is 5km/h or more, still distance is short, calories are spot-on
great work, looking forward for final version. This really could solve problems with pace and short distance on F6 serie
How do you know the GPS distance is short? Parkrun courses aren’t usually officially measured. They are usually based of a mapping app or similar.
Have you tried running an actually know distance…maybe a 400m track…to validate?
My experience with forest runs is that the F6 then clearly does consistently measure gps-distance 2-3% to short. Only occasionaly it is closer to the real distance.
"Fixed issue that would corrupt open water swim activity files" , is something related to short distance reported on OWS?

Its not so much about the GPS. Its about the algorithm for mainly the pace, its not good in this software version for the Fenix 6. Her slower average pace also indicates that her device measure the distance short. Also an algorithm problem. Garmin knows…
Which distance is correct? Maybe the distance from the walking app is too short.
