I just got a treadmill and have done a few walks on it. The first one, the watch recorded the distance about half of what it should’ve been but I didn’t know how to calibrate it so I edited it in Garman app. After the second walk, I recalibrated the watch because it was also almost half of the distance reported on my treadmill. The third walk, it was almost dead on and I was pleased, but did recalibrate just so they matched and hoping it would help it be as accurate as possible.
But today’s walk was more inaccurate than before, again reporting about half the distance, but this time it won’t let me calibrate properly? The watch distance was something around 2.1km. The treadmill distance was 3.15km. But the watch would only let me calibrate up to 2.43km, no more. I had to save it and edit it in the app again. What is going on? The steps seem correct, 4158 steps in about 38 minutes...
Why won’t it let me put in the correct distance? The numbers weren’t greeted out, just rejected when I tried to save. I even went so far as to check my treadmill to see if it is reporting the correct speed and distance and it was just about right. (Measured the band and counted revolutions). Anyone else experience this?
