I am using a Garmin Enduro 3.
My Garmin Connect account is linked to my Strava account.
The ride distance and elevation is pulled from Garmin to Strava and both show the exact same thing.
But ride duration is totally off.
I saw someone has posted essentially the same question and the response was Strava is more strict about resting time than Garmin, so in effect Strava will attribute more time to riding, therefore longer ride duration and lower average speed than shown in Garmin connect.
Mine is the opposite.
I did a ride that shows as 2 Hours and 10 Mins in Garmin Connect with average speed of 24.6 KM/h
The same ride is pulled through to Strava and shows as 1 Hr 35 Mins with average speed of 33.6KM/H
This is a massive difference.
A slight difference is acceptable.
How to fix this?
 

A friend suggested it is about GPS Smart Recording verses GPS recording every second.
I have switched to recording every second.
Todays ride duration on my Garmin shows as 1 Hour 14 Mins with average speed of 22.5km/h
The same ride on Strava shows as 46 Min with an average speed of 36km/h

Anyone has any ideas how to resolve this.
