Nike Run Club freaked out!

Nike app went crazy this morning. It didn't map my run properly and maintained I'd run 2k more than I had. I also seem to have doubled my running speed! I'll have to delete the run. Anyone else had this happen to them?

Oh how annoying, I had that once on a lunch stop on a long walk, covered a km while eating a sandwich at the riverbank. It was on a garmin. Also had it with viewranger while running in a cove. I put it down to bad locations for gps signal

It was a special run, too, where I reached 400k, and now I've got to go back to 390s! I've done that run several times with no problems. Hilarious how you and your sandwich managed 1k seated on a riverbank!

Oh such a shame, that was a really special run for you. I did 10k last week to reach 100miles since graduating c25k in October, I'd have been devastated if it hadnt recorded, 10k is a long run I've only done twice. We depend so much on technology

Wow! You're going some! My 400k is a year's work. I was wondering if I should change to a different app but maybe they all have glitches sometimes.

I guess there will always be a blip. You could have always run 2k another day and not recorded it😉

Sorry, not quite following you there. Are you a granny yet? It sounds as though you were in waiting when you signed up.

Sorry was just saying you could have kept the wrong distance recorded, then treated yourself to a nice short 2k which you didn't record then your total distance would be correct.

Still waiting to be a granny, daughter was only a couple of months pregnant when I signed up for c25k. It's been a long pregnancy especially when she invited 10 of us for Christmas day and I got to cook🥴 baby due mid February so getting there then I'll need a new name
