Just did a 5K and started out quite well so thought I’ll try to run my fastest 5K , I have notifications on because I find it helps me so when he said distance 5 k time 33 minutes and something I was quite pleased , got home looked at the stats and it says 37 πŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆ I know I stopped a few times but it says pausing does it not take this into account ?? Never mind I still did it as not been out much at all

If you look in β€˜view analysis’ and scroll down, you’ll see a moving time and an elapsed time. Could that be the difference?
