polar flow syncing issue?

I have a polar m400 gps watch that I really like and i use the polar flow app to sync my data to mfp. I am a large heavy guy so when I run my watch and heart rate monitor calculate a larger number of calories burned per time and distance than for most runners.

When I sync to mfp it seems just to send the calories burned number and time while not syncing the actual distance. What I nd up with is mfp claiming that I run a 7 minute mile and in reality I run a 9-10 minute mile. Does anyone know of a way to correct this automatically?

Also some polar flow workout buddies would be nice.

    Are you on the iPhone? The 10.0.2 upgrade broke the bluetooth connections for all of my devices. In searching the web, I learned that it did that to pretty much everyone. I have a ticket in with Apple, but basically, until they fix that, I won't have exercise or steps synching to my phone apps.
