So after missing out on a 10K under an hour by seconds tonight achieved on under an hour by seconds. A very cold run on some slippery pavements but got there another 6.5 miles on the legs.

Well done! May I ask what you use to track your progress, calories, speed, distance etc. And do you find it reliable?

Thanks JoDak I use Strava on my iphone7 and seems to be pretty good. I have the sound on and get each half mile, time run and split times.

I use the free version and not the paid part. I also have a Fitbit surge linked to my phone and they appear to back each other up.

No probs no sure how reliable the calories used is as this differs between the Fitbit and Strava but I just know I have used more than I normally would have if not run
