I've found the race predictions get more accurate the longer I have the watch. My predicted marathon time typically reduces by about an hour over the training program. For my last race i was two minutes under the predicted time. The predictions used to…
I used a paper Green Trails map which shows distance on different segments of trails. I know that isn't super accurate but wanted to show that even adjusted distance is still typically shorter than actual. In general all watches measure short on trails…
Hi Achim,
I cannot rely on "Amy", but it´s a normal approach to train slower on long training runs and faster in a few short intervals.
On a marathon you also don´t go for the full distance and pace before.
I managed to update the firmware via a computer like a 2004 iPod, and I now get some results through to my phone on the driving range. I wouldn’t say the bugs are all gone yet. I needed to have the ball very specifically placed in order to achieve a result…
Previously Audio Prompts - Lap alerts announced speed and HR rate, but now just very short lap number and probably distance (not sure, don't remember right now).
I used to have it configured, but can't recall where. Can't find this info in the manual…
The Fenix 6 measures GPS distance consistently 2-3% to short.
Here is a comparison from today:
Fenix 6: 8,3km
Forerunner 305: 8,5km
Samsung S10/Endomondo: 8,71km.
This is what I have seen from all my runs. Using beta 5.72, 5.74 and 5.75.
The oHR have…
Does the route you followed have a lot of sharp turns? Does it have a lot of buildings or trees?
Have you compared the two GPS traces to see whether one of them is cutting corners or going off track?
In general, I find the 955 is very accurate, far more…
The VO₂Max figure is greatly influenced by the type of runs you do. It seems to favour my short faster runs (2 miles) over my longer distances at a more moderate pace.
I did a very demanding 5km run at the weekend on soft sand which will have caused my…
