W9R1 in the bag with more in the tank! Is there an app that measures your run accurately against a map? I tried samsung health but it seems to work on time not distance. Long story short, i want to know if i ran 5K! Thanks all for your advice and support.

I've been using Strava. It's free and if you do the same routes regularly tracks person records.

I use map my run, it calculates distance, speed calories etc and talks to you every 0.6 of a km. I really like it and it’s free.

I’m a Runkeeper girl. Tried Strava but it kept cutting out mid-run.

I used Samsung health and mine's gives me distance you can set it for 5k for example as I did yesterday for a walk

[Jamsandwich Graduate in reply to Cazzajambo]

you can? must be user error then!

[Cazzajambo in reply to Jamsandwich]

Haha if you going into running then track it gives you a drop down box to change it to distance I can do a post with a screenshot if it helps I only found it by accident 😂

Lots of free options. A lot of the B210K folk use Strava and it's nice to follow your chums on there to make sure they're being safe and sensible.

Tech gremlins abound whichever app you try tho. We live in a world that's imperfect. Apart from us running about dudes
