Race prediction

My race prediction is currently showing 20:47 for 5K and yet at the weekend I did Parkrun and recorded a time on my watch of 20:18 for 5K. Surely the most basic thing this feature should do is take into account recently recorded runs.

I agree with that strategy. My watch used to indicate that my 10K race pace was 1:06. After running a 48 minute 10K, it has finally agreed that my race pace is not 1:06, but 1:05.

same here, estimation never went below 20:40. (did some races 5.10k 20:02 5.07k 19:49).
Estimated VO2max is 54-55. (corresponds to +/- 5k 18.45)

So: actual race times and vo2max are overruled by something else (shouldn't be !)
The proof is (not) in the pudding
