Forerunner 45 isn't displaying correct distance during a run

Running outside using GPS, the watch is marking the laps correctly (lap distance is a mile) but the total mileage displayed during the run and recorded afterwards is off.  I wait for the GPS to detect, click "Start" and as soon as I start moving it shows ~4.5 miles.  Each lap will restart at that ~4.5 mile mark.  I've sometimes been able to avoid this by clearing totals/history off the watch, but that seems like a kludge and it doesn't always work.

    I have exactly the same issue. It works normally only when I save or discard the initial activity (after "Start") and do "Start" again. Does anyone know how to fix  it?
