  • Pace way different between two people with 935's

    My friend and I both have 935's. We run together, and except for minor distances when one of us goes ahead for a short time, we mostly run side by side.

    Yet after we upload our runs to Strava, her pace is almost 30 seconds faster than mine - yet,…

    Common reasons to why not getting a challenge badge:

    • Not joining the challenge
    • Not logging the activity with a Garmin device. So Zwift will not work.
    • Not going the full distance. Pretty common if your normal units are different…

    I read everything there is on this forum about calibrating a treadmill exercise.



    I entered a wrong distance, 10 times to short, and cannot correct this. In the field where the only choice is to save or discard I tried discard, got a dustbin, tried that…
