The best efforts for a run are set at 400m, ½ mile, 1km, 1mi, 2mi, 5k, 10k,15k,10mi,20k, HM, M, 50k.  There should be an option to set some custom distance best efforts. This would cater the ultra runner as well as users who want to improve on shorter distance. For example, many military organisations have best effort runs that are not captured in this. e.g. Most of British military has best effort run at 2km / 1.2mi.
