Plea for tips

[GoogleMe]

I am wondering why the Active 10 app is *quite* so mean and wondering if anyone has any tips?

I was particularly irritated the other day when I did a 50 minute run, average 10 mins per km, bookended with brisk walks (maybe not a full 5 minutes each end but definitely adding up to 5 minutes)... but Active 10 says 40 only brisk minutes...

Not sure as mine is quite temperamental- often where my phone is on my body and yet if in my handbag it will still register. I sometimes use the 1 min checker and will brisk jog on the spot and will record about 150 but that then will not register on my total

Ah that's interesting. When I go for a run my phone is usually in a waist bag and (having listened well to Laura in the C25K podcast early days) I am not a bouncy runner.

Huh… I do wonder if the position of the phone makes a difference. I’ve not had any issues, but yes, active minutes is always a bit less than total minutes of walking.

I wear it in the pocket of my leggings on the side of my leg.
