Forums >Gears and Wears>? re: moving time on Garmin vs. MB -- which is correct?
I guess I don't understand why it would record the time and distance when it's "stopped." Why bother stopping it?

I think it has to do with the satalite etc. If you stop it and walk to car and then turn it off or reset it, it won't record anything after you stopped it. Only if you restarted the garmin after stopping it.

Ok...that makes sense. Now I wonder how accurate my time and distance is on some of my longer runs, though...when I have to stop for traffic or to pee. I try to start back from where I stopped, but I know the time is off, so the distance should be right...correct?

Auto pause...I thought of using that before I got my Garmin, but I swear someone around here said it was a problematic feature...maybe that it wouldn't un-pause reliably...? I will have to look for that.

I find it problematic myself. It would keep stopping when it shouldn't etc.

I've used my Garmin in a HM and Marathon now, and for both races I found it measured the courses as apx. 0.2-0.3 miles longer than the race is. Since we're on the topic of Garmin accuracy, has anyone else experienced this? I know not taking proper tangents around corners adds distance... but 0.2-0.3 miles worth of distance?
