Garmin Forerunner 245 recalculates running distance after save of run

Hi guys!

Could you please tell me how to fix next issue with Garmin Forerunner 245.

Before I want to save my running result I see running distance 21 km, than I press "Save" button and during saving process watch changes running distance to 20,5 km.

What I have to do for avoid this situation and see actual distance before save?

Thank you!

Disable that app on your next run and see if you're issue goes away. If it does, you can contact the developer and bring it to their…

Strange.

Never had that. Distance shown before saving is always the same as the final distance.

Issue reproduces always

Maybe for you, but I never had that.

That won‘t change, if you (or whoever that was) downvotes me. In other words: Contact Garmin Support, seems like a special problem that not a lot of people experience, otherwise someone would have answered by now.

Yesterday, I paid extra attention to it.

it was 16,17 km on activity screen when I stopped, 16,17 km before saving, 16,17 km after saving and 16,17 km in Connect App.

Settings (maybe this helps you):

- Running activity from Garmin, quite standard settings

- GPS + Glonass

- Recording „Intelligent“

- Of course waited for GPS Sync („Green Circle“) before start of the run

I use:

- GPS + Glonass

- Recording „every second“

- Waite for GPS Sync („Green Circle“) before start of the run

- Auto stop is disabled

Also I use "Peter's (Race) Pacer" apps.garmin.com/.../23ea0301-30c6-4c33-b4ef-63e2b5394e76

Probably it is "Peter's (Race) Pacer" bug?

Yes, this answer is correct! Do not use "Peter's (Race) Pacer"...

"Peter's (Race) Pacer" apps.garmin.com/.../23ea0301-30c6-4c33-b4ef-63e2b5394e76 is not reliable for me anymore.
