Went out before breakfast for my usual 10k. Phone battery almost dead but turned on strava hoping for the best. Went out hard and thought i'll keep at it as long as I can. It lasted all the way round, got home and picked my phone up and managed to read "44:"-something before the phone shut off.
So let's round upwards and call it a 45m 10k done. Didn't think it'd be that good, but I'm happy to surprise myself. This calls for big breakfast and burger lunch. With pint. or 2.
Might have to scrap that. Turned my phone back on and strava had saved the run. What was 9.7k last week was just 9.3 this week, though the runs were identical. The suggested time was 44:03 though.
Done some googling on strava accuracy and it seems to less than great. Time to get a garmin? Can't really be bothered with more gadgets though. Or maybe just scrap it all together and run for the sake of it.
Average pace according to strava was 4:38/km, which would make it a 46:20 10k. Seems more reasonable tbh.
