Okay. I've been using running apps and when I started off years ago, I could run at least 13-14 pace per mile (going up hill). During winter I stayed ground level, with shorter hills (we have them everywhere), and now as its getting warmer, I got 9:55 pace average per mile twice in a week. So the improvement paid off in those couple of years. So, this morning, I ran 2.7 miles.
I tried Strava for the first time, and it said:
Average pace 6:13 per mile
Average elapsed pace per mile 15:23
Moving time 14:36
Elapsed time 36:05 (because of mini walks and traffic light stops)
Fastest split 2s per mile
Legend:
Pace-how fast I ran per mile-smaller the number, the faster
Elapsed pace-how fast I was moving the whole time
Moving time-how long I was active
Elapsed time-how long the app was running
Okay.
How on earth did I get from 9:55 pace on one app two times last week to 6:13 this morning on Strava?
Did I actually do 6:13 per mile and the difference of elapsed time was my second mile pace?
Just want to make sure I'm reading this right because I'm happy I did 6:13 per mile (just got to work on it) but don't want to fool myself, ya know?
