Hi ​@Adamruns, does refreshing achievements work? See the attached screenshot. 

(And that's some decent PR, congrats! 👍🙂)


Edit to add: also, try the “Refresh stats” button under the “My Stats” overview on your profile page.

There is a chance that you did not run far enough for it to register as a full half mile. Yes, it says 0.50mi, but that number is going to be rounded, either up or down a little most likely. It could easily be 0.495 miles, so it would not count necessarily as a full half mile for the PR.  If you want to ensure you reach any benchmark distance, you should always run a little past it on the recording just to be sure.  I usually go at least a tenth of a mile beyond any benchmark distance goal, sometimes further.
