Must be my week for getting stood up 😂

[Maddee_6333]

Canicrossing friend and I were meant to be running together today, but then she realised she was volunteering at her youngest child’s school today 🤦‍♀️

Which actually made my day simpler as it meant I only had to walk the two older dogs before heading out for a free run with the 3 younger ones.

I really did think I’d turned my tracking app on, but I think actually my fingers were possibly a bit too cold for it to register that I’d hit the button 🤦‍♀️ And I didn’t realise until I got to the end of my 28 minute run.

Luckily I’d screenshot my walk earlier - because I’d had a vague idea of doing that route as my walk/run, but ultimately there were too many horses close to the fence in one field for me to risk it. So I took a screenshot as I started my cool down walk, and another when I got to the car, which at least gives me a rough idea of how far I’d come during my warm up walk and run

7.1 - 2.7 = 4.4k

Which I am more than happy with

Good run... and you’ve just given me the workaround/backup plan for when my tracker fails... the other week I was 10 minutes in and had 0.01 miles on the screen... I just started it again and set the time for the remaining estimated distance... I forgot about the health screen!

[Maddee_6333 Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

The health screen can be very useful 👍

If I know I’ve left it lying around while I’ve done housework etc, then whatever it shows later on will be ‘active’ distance.

Yeah... even more so now I’m starting to use headphones... I’ll have an alarm as a backup for over running, but it’s a pain in the butt when I need to restart. It’s a shame we can’t add a marker into the health app... I may have to suggest this.

[Maddee_6333 Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

I often listen to audio dramas when I’m running - rather usefully they are generally about half an hour long. Which is very helpful.

That is a pain!

Ooh yes, a marker would be good - though I don’t think it will happen, as they seem to concentrate on data collection.

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Maddee_6333]

Oh... found it... if you tap on the miles and then show all data, you get a list of the individual movements... I just looked at my tailwalk from Saturday where I stopped to talk to marshals, it’s chopped the run into little bits... run on Sunday is in one. So, need to stop for a few seconds between brisk walk and run and I think it will log properly, I’ll test it this weekend

[Maddee_6333 Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Ooooo now I need to go and investigate!

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Maddee_6333]

Looks like if I look at a combination of screens I can get a runs data and then it could be put back into a tracker... so only the gps data would be missing.

[Maddee_6333 Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Yes. Yes it does. 😁

A dog will never stand you up when the running lead comes out; well done Maddee

Merlin certainly won’t, anyway 😍
