I am very much a low pace, low mileage runner who has not really desire to be superfast. Nonetheless being able to accurately record the time I have been out running against the distance I covered in that time is important for me to assess progress.
I live in an area in which GPS is dodgy to the left of me (woods) and to the right of me (heavy built up area)! I very rarely get a correct route on my run, with wild forays off track which can add up to quite a bit of extra mileage. One run I completed said that I was running 3min km pace - seriously I am not even close to that fast, I think I am likely around 8min km pace. I have tried other ways to measure but it all gets really tiresome and when you are paying for a data collection software it would be nice to have that record distance and time.
I appreciate that strava can’t be responsible for sorting out GPS signals so as a last resort if we are able to post run edit the map to iron out the kinks then at least pace could be recorded on the strava app. I understand also that this may mean losing some additional data, such as specific HR when maps have been edited but again, happy to lose this for accurate progress tracking.
