Setting up distance on Race Screen app

Former Member over 7 years ago

Hi, how do you set up the distance on the Race Screen predictor app on your Garmin 235? I want to predict my marathon finish time based on my pace but the distance shows 0.00 and don't know how to add the marathon distance show it shows on the data screen.

Anyone can assist that would be great and will probably be something easy!!!

In Garmin Connect Mobile go to Connect IQ, find the app and go to settings. You then put your race distance in meters in the settings. Google for the exact figure but it?s about 42000. Some people over estimate the distance by a few percent to accoun5 for GPS error.

42.2km for a marathon.

It?s 42195m actually, but as I stated, you might want to put in 42500 and then you if you don?t run the optimum racing line you won't get disappointed missing your goal but a few seconds as you find you are running more than race distance.
