What happens if you go over the distance of the run? Does Runna and Strava still record it?
My garmin forerunner 55 doesn’t automatically end the workout. It says workout finished but the clock keeps going until I press stop. Just the other day I purposely went .25 over and it recorded 3 miles instead of the prescribed 2.75

Qual relógio vocês me indicariam?
Os Apps tbm são menos precisos, o Strava te deixa um pouco mais rápido e o Adidas mais lerdo. Eu paguei 950 a quase 2 anos no Amazfit Cheetah, e não posso reclamar, sendo facilmente superior ao já datado Garmin FR55. Pode ser usado pra corrida, triatlum, natação em águas abertas, tem o treinador zee

Even my $100 dollar used Garmin FR55 can be off by 50-75m (mostly short). I doubt any watch is 100% accurate!

People who want to go back to Pebble, what does it do that other smartwatches don't?
I was forced to find a replacement for my Pebble Time Steel after the software for iOS wasn't on the App Store anymore, so I got a Garmin Forerunner 55. These are the things I miss about my Pebble: Sleep tracking: I don't care that my Garmin has a heart rate sensor and can give me more accurate deta
