Interesting - thanks, good to know.
My mate has being doing 5 and 10k efforts round the Emirates stadium and is getting some pretty fast times which I'm suspicious of. (Yeah, he's quicker than me, and yeah I'm bitter about it).
I did 12k the other day at a very relaxed pace. I went round the emirates as part of that and on that km segment my pace jumped quite a bit. I definitely wasn't running faster.
Made me wonder whether there is something going on with the gps round the emirates, or whether as it's a circle, the gps is triangulating and constantly cutting corners and hence giving a quicker time....
Either way, I've told my mate I'm not accepting his emirates times. (He is also using a phone).
