GPS nonsense

Just completed my third self isolation run in my modest sized garden.

These runs were the last 2 of week 6 and 1st of week 7. A triumph for me tbh.

Despite me running 25 mins non stop for two of these runs my Strava app (twice) and then the running app on my watch had some difficulty picking up my run. This normal when GPS apps are picking up short circuits?

I know I’m not fast but 1.6km in 25 mins is wrong...I promise. And 9 mins of exercise on my watch rings is a joke! 😂
