Presumably the lap should be 4.37 officially (3 laps would then be 13.11) but as it's trail that might not be accurately measured.

SPR Mar 2023 9:32pm, 5 Mar 2023 39,743 posts	SPR What I'm saying is your watch matched your friend's for 2 out of the 3 laps today unless I'm missing something which suggests your watch had an issue for a short period at some point. I'd have said it was a glitch if you weren't saying it happens regularly

After removing and re-inserting 2 different fresh batteries, I found out that the Duracell button batteries now have a sticker on the underside telling you not to swallow them. I'd like to force-feed one of them to the person who made the decision to put that sticker on the underside. 😑

larkim Mar 2023 11:05am, 7 Mar 2023 20,465 posts	larkim A little info is a dangerous thing! Garmin only ever displays VO2Max as a whole integer, so if your VO2Max increases from 54.6 to 55.4 it will just report 55. But because I use runalyze I can see the 2 decimal places and I'd seen a nice trend over the last couple of weeks of small improvements; right up to last night where it fell by over 0.5!! So I'm grumpy about it, despite the fact that it is probably just a function of when I ate, what the weather was like and the route choice I made. Fortunately though I didn't lick my HRM so I don't have any cold sores
