Zwift Run

Anyone using this? I’ve just started today and it seems quite good. I’ve paired it with a footpod.
Any tips etc? I might try a group run tomorrow night. In the E category lol.
One thing I did notice though was the app said I was running at about 5 mph, but I had the speed on my treadmill at 6mph! It was only accurate when I was walking at 3.5mph.

I love zwift! i use it both with the bike and on the treadmill.

For the best accuracy you should calibrate the footpod every time you use it. (Little spanner icon on the connect device page). I find accuracy is best when you set 'normal pace' as the pace you expect to be doing most of the session at. e.g. if it's an easy run set normal pace to the pace you plan to run at, if it's a harder run set a faster normal pace. This seems to improve accuracy although it's always a bit off in sessions where you are switching up the pace a lot like intervals.

Ah, I didn’t think to calibrate it, I’ll try that next. I’m registered for a group run tonight at 8pm providing the tiny terror goes to sleep, and doesn’t play up. Looking forward to trying that.
