JamesWegner Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) Hi. I just heard of this yesterday and started today. I really used to love running. Haven’t tried it again in 40 years. Eager to see what will happen. But I have a question. The app marked my trail correctly which I know to be a little over 1.5 miles. But when I finished the app said I did .1 miles and only 10 calories. What am I doing wrong? Thank you!

CleBkPkr Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 Hmmm... I don't track/map my route so I'm not certain. Could be poor GPS ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesWegner Posted April 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 Don’t think so. It marked my path correctly. Thanks for reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninjajedi Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 Mine isn't entirely accurate but not that bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabapple Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 My c25k is rarely, if ever, accurate. I use the Nike app at the same time I use the c25k. As long as I'm not between my building and the covered parking area when I begin my run, the Nike app always picks up the GPS signal and gives me an accurate reading. The c25k seems like it never attaches itself to the GPS even though the GPS is always turned on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninjajedi Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 I have a Garmin watch too so that's what I go by. Crabapple 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesWegner Posted April 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 Thank you all for the replies! I just assumed that since it plotted my route so accurately that it could also calculate the distance. I will use another app for that I guess. You think they would have fixed that by now.

Crabapple Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 It's a logical to suppose that it would do that, all right. Glad we could help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
