I run for Fried Chicken!
If it's going to be more than a few seconds, I pause it. I like my average pace to be accurate. Total time from start to finish isn't as important, training isn't supposed to be a race.

wondering if people stop the timer for their runs. I figure I recover during the time, so it "counts" towards total time (I run be distance, not duration), but wondering what others think / do.
