Race Predictor on the watch and in the 'Performance Stats' section of the Connect app are totally different and not even close!

There is a 'race predictor' in the Garmin Connect app under 'performance stats' that shows times for 5K, 10K, half marathon, and marathon. There is also a race predictor on the watch inside the VO2Max widget that shows similar things.

However, the times shown on the watch and the app are completely different. For example, the app right now shows a 5K predicted time of 38:07, while the watch shows 1:04:42, which is not only absurd but also completely uncorrellated with what the app is showing. I have only one watch and it's paired to only one phone, so there's no missing sync / multiple devices feeding data issue going on here.

Please help resolving this bug!

Same problem. In my case the app race predictor is too optimistic while the screen on the 4runner 255 is more realistic.

Mine are perfectly aligned, Are you running 12.27 which had some changes to these measures?

Yes, I installed the 12'27 and honestly the prediction is more realistic than the previous version. The point is that the update seems to affect only the watch prediction, while the Garmin connect still stays with the old prediction.

Mine are all aligned on Garmin Connect , Watch and the App. Maybe it take a little time for them all to align..

Mine are all the same too.

rowschank do you have only one garmin device or more? Maybe it is an issue regarding the synchronisation of the data from multiple devices.

(I have only one watch connected to my garmin profile)

No Race Predictor in GCM at all for me. Only on the watch. Maybe unique to certain geographies?

Performance Stats > Race Predictor?

Doesn't exist...tried clearing cache based on Internet search of problem...still not there. Actually, I don't remember ever seeing it.
